venticool position paper: "Developing ventilative cooling for better comfort and energy savings in buildings"

This position paper gives a brief overview of opportunities and challenges for ventilative cooling solutions both:

• To contribute to the 2020 objectives of the EU in the building sector with regard to energy savings and greenhouse gas emissions;
• To contain the overheating risk, which is an increasing concern in low-energy buildings.

venticool partners believe policy makers and standard bodies should take steps together with the implementation of the EPBD recast to accelerate the uptake of this technology.
