After its successful preparation phase, the IEA EBC Annex 62 entered in January 2014 its four year working phase (2014-2017). The first meeting of the working phase was held in Lausanne, Switzerland, with 32 representatives from research institutes and private industries from 15 countries.
The main focus of the meeting was the preparation of the state-of-the art report based on the drafts of the 6 main chapters. The final version is expected to ready before the second expert meeting in September 2014. The participants reviewed the work status of subtasks A and B on “Methods and tools” and “Solutions”, respectively. Regarding the dissemination action plan, in the short term, the participants have decided to organize a workshop on 17 September 2014, in Brunel, UK, in conjunction with the next expert meeting to discuss ventilative cooling issues with key local actors, including industries, consultants, standard writers and policy makers. In addition, the 34th AIVC conference in Poznan, Poland, 24-25 September 2014, will include a session specifically on the Annex.
