International Building Decarbonization Conference

The International Building Decarbonization Conference is a major technical forum organised by ASHRAE (the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) focused on accelerating carbon reduction strategies within the global built environment. Designed for engineers, architects, researchers, policymakers, facility managers, and industry stakeholders, this conference provides a collaborative platform to explore cutting-edge research, practical tools, case studies, and policy frameworks that advance building decarbonization and sustainability globally.

The conference brings together a diverse international audience to exchange ideas, share technical insights, and highlight real-world solutions that support the transition to low-carbon building design, construction, operation, and retrofits. Sessions typically span innovative topics such as whole-building decarbonization approaches, energy-efficient systems, electrification strategies, embodied carbon methodologies, policy integration, and financing mechanisms that make decarbonisation feasible and impactful across a range of building types and scales.

A hallmark of the event is its inclusive technical programme, which combines peer-reviewed papers, expert presentations, roundtable discussions, and interactive workshops. Participants benefit from access to the latest technical research and practitioner insights while engaging with global thought leaders who are shaping standards, tools, and best practices in decarbonisation for both new and existing buildings.

The International Building Decarbonization Conference also fosters networking and collaboration among professionals from academia, industry, government, and utilities, helping to bridge gaps between innovation and practical implementation. Attendees gain exposure to emerging technologies, interdisciplinary approaches, and strategic partnerships that enhance project performance, improve environmental outcomes, and enable compliance with ambitious climate goals.

Whether you are involved in engineering design, sustainability planning, facilities management, or policy development, this conference remains an essential forum for advancing knowledge, sharing expertise, and driving collective action toward a carbon-neutral built environment.
