The five-day event includes eight conference tracks, over 100 technical sessions, tours, social experiences and industry-specific committee meetings. The conference will offer a wide range of industry specific technical tracks that explore emerging approaches to building design, construction, operation and decarbonization.
A keynote presentation will be given by Peter Leyden, an expert on new technologies and future trends. He will focus on technological revolutions in Infotech like AI, in Biotech like genetic engineering and in Energy Tech like electric transportation.
A new track at the conference, “Pathways to Zero Energy Emissions and Decarbonization,” highlights methods being developed to reduce carbon impact on the global environment and the actions that ASHRAE and its members are taking to advance these efforts. Sessions in this track include:
- Accelerating Change in Building Design and Operation towards a Decarbonized and Net-zero Energy Future
- Combined Heat and Power: A Key Carbon-Free Dispatchable Energy Resource
- Igniting a Carbon-free Fire around Building Science
Other technical program tracks include:
- Fundamentals and Applications
- HVAC&R Systems and Equipment
- Refrigeration and Refrigerants
