IEA Energy in Buildings and Communities (EBC) research projects are examining building energy codes, exploring data utilization for improving energy efficiency, and investigating air cleaning technologies.
We are happy to announce that the recordings of the AIVC/ EBC Annex 87 & venticool co-organized webinar, “Personalized Environmental Control System (PECS) in Action: Insights from Case Studies”, held on December 5, 2024 are now available on our website!
This webinar explored field applications of PECS with a global perspective and discussed its benefits and limitations in buildings.
The recordings and the slides of the recent EBC Webinar "Innovation and Energy Policy for Buildings: International Collaboration to Accelerate Change" are now available online here.

IEA Energy in Buildings and Communities (EBC) research projects are helping to substantially reduce energy demands in buildings and fully exploit renewable energy sources. With a focus on Germany, this webinar will explore energy policy for buildings and how national and international innovation activities are contributing to this.

Extensive research studies in many countries have found gaps between the design intent and real-world operation of buildings, which often lead to much higher energy use in practice than was estimated at design stage. While the reasons for such performance gaps are varied and complex, IEA Energy in Buildings and Communities (EBC) research projects have recently been making progress in resolving them.
