Full Description

The majority of buildings that will exist in the year 2030 have already been built, says ASHRAE’s 2009-2010 President, Gordon V.R. Holness in his inaugural address. Holness describes ASHRAE’s path forward on addressing energy efficiency in existing buildings. While existing buildings present great challenges, they offer us a greater opportunity to significantly impact our overall national energy demand, reduce our dependence upon imported oil and gas and minimize our carbon footprint.
