Topic

4 Steps to Net Zero

Overview

ASHRAE 90.1-2022 is the first of four editions leading to Net Zero in 2031. ASHRAE and the DOE have committed that 90.1 will be a Net Zero Carbon Code by 2031 and this presentation will show the path ASHRAE 90.1 will take to reach this goal. This presentation is an after dinner-sized serving of the changes made since 90.1-2019, with examples of how they can be used to improve your designs today.
