Our bodies need good rest and sleep as part of regular recuperation to enable us to perform our normal activities in life. Sleep is an integral part of human life and the importance and significance of good bedroom IAQ, indoor air pollution, ventilation as well as bedroom thermal environment during sleep cannot be emphasized more. Yet, there is a paucity of information in the scientific literature in this regard, especially pertaining to IAQ in sleeping environments and sleep quality. Are our bedrooms adequately ventilated at all times to maintain good IAQ?

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.
