The preparations for the 42nd AIVC-10th TightVent- 8th venticool conference have started. It is the intention to have this conference in Rotterdam, the Netherlands on 5-6 October 2022. A professional conference organizer is involved in these preparations. More information will follow soon so stay tuned!
The venticool platform paper: “Overview of provisions for ventilative cooling within 8 European building energy performance regulations” is now available online. This study aimed to focus on regulatory measures taken or missing regarding ventilative cooling in several countries, which could either inspire developments in other countries or point out specific problems for the market uptake of this technology.
