ASHRAE along with leading industry organizations have released the technical program for the 2023 Decarbonization Conference for the Built Environment, October 25-27, 2023 in Washington, D.C. at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View. The full conference schedule is now available and registration is open.
The conference is organized by ASHRAE, the American Institute of Architects (AIA), International Facility Management Association (IFMA), APPA and Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA).
Detailing further on the programme, 2023-24 ASHRAE President Ginger Scoggins, P.E., Fellow ASHRAE, said, “The goal of this conference is to bring persons who work in all aspects of building design, construction, operation, ownership and management into the same room to address how the building industry as a whole can improve the impact buildings have on the global climate crises. Since building design, construction and operation contribute close to 40% of total global emissions of carbon, it is imperative that we all work together to develop a path forward to address buildings’ impact.”
The three-day event will include 23 seminars, 17 panels, three keynote sessions, including a roundtable of industry executives. Keynote speakers are climate change, cleantech and sustainability expert Chris Turner and Sue Hall, Chief Executive Officer of Climate Neutral Business Network.
