ATLANTA, Georgia, USA, 1 August 2024: ASHRAE is accepting abstracts for the 2025 Buildings XVI International Conference, to be held from December 8 to 11, 2025, in Clearwater Beach, Florida. Making the announcement through a Press Release, ASHRAE said it is co-organising the conference with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, with the event’s steering committee seeking abstracts focused on residential and commercial applications. The committee is looking for abstracts on the development of high impact technologies and processes that are cost effective, and reduce energy use and environmental consequences, ASHRAE said.

Papers should demonstrate how the focus will lead to high performance buildings, present technologies ready for implementation and offer short- to mid-term adoption, ASHRAE said. Selected papers will be offered the opportunity to be expanded and published in ASHRAE’s Science and Technology for the Built Environment, ASHRAE added.

According to ASHRAE, abstract submissions are due by September 20, 2024. If accepted, papers will be due on April 1, 2025.

André Desjarlais, Conference Chairperson, said: “This conference draws heavily on the advanced technical knowledge of our global experts and takes place every three years, allowing time to develop new research and technology applications and to document findings.

“It’s a great opportunity for product manufacturers, research groups, technical advisors, builders, designers and consultants to discuss their work achievements, interest and awareness of buildings issues, and provide solutions to some of our major building problems.”

New for the 2025 conference is the opportunity to present work to a broader audience through the Buildings XVI Poster Session, ASHRAE said. Students – Post Doctoral or Masters – and early-career professionals are highly encouraged to submit their research through the poster session, ASHRAE said. Only an initial abstract and a poster is required, ASHRAE added.

The conference, ASHRAE said, includes three tracks focused on Principles (research and development), Practices (applications and case studies) and Residential Buildings.
