Attend CSE’s Working Toward Decarbonization in the HVAC Industry Webcast 

As the push for carbon-neutral buildings intensifies, decarbonizing HVAC systems has become a crucial goal for mechanical and environmental engineers. This session will focus on practical strategies to electrify HVAC systems in new buildings, addressing the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance energy efficiency. With a particular focus on all-electric systems — such as heat pumps, electric boilers, and energy recovery ventilators — this session will demonstrate how electrification can lead to more sustainable, energy-efficient designs across various building types.

Participants will gain insights into the technical considerations and challenges involved in electrifying HVAC systems, exploring how different approaches fit into a broader decarbonization strategy. This will touch on ASHRAE 90.1, LEED certification requirements, and local energy codes. The session will also discuss design strategies that integrate energy recovery and efficient control systems to further reduce energy consumption.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the principles of electrifying HVAC systems and how technologies like heat pumps, electric boilers, and energy recovery systems can support decarbonization efforts in new building designs.

• Identify key codes and standards, including ASHRAE 90.1, LEED, and local energy codes, and how they apply to the design and implementation of electrified HVAC systems.
• Analyze the technical challenges and design considerations for achieving energy-efficient and carbon-neutral HVAC systems across various building types, ensuring long-term sustainability and performance.
• Explore case studies and best practices for designing HVAC systems that align with decarbonization goals, emphasizing energy efficiency, system optimization, and compliance with established sustainability standards.
