IEA EBC Annex 86: Energy Efficient Indoor Air Quality Management in Residential Buildings
Residential buildings should be able to provide good indoor air quality while ensuring high comfort and low energy use at lowest possible cost. This project will develop methods and compile data to evaluate different indoor air quality management strategies. Furthermore, innovative control strategies will be evaluated and tested in order to develop concrete recommendations for possible implementations of innovative ventilation systems for residential buildings.
IEA-SHC Task 64: Solar Process Heat
The IEA SHC Task 64/IV promotes the integration of solar thermal energy into industrial heating systems through standardised concepts, simulation tools and market strategies. The focus was on the development of modular integration solutions, the combination with heat pumps and the evaluation of simulation methods. The ‘Guideline to Market’ offers strategies for market launch. The results support companies and politicians in establishing SHIP as an efficient and scalable technology.
Making the Circular Economy Work
