ASHRAE is accepting abstracts for the 2025 Buildings XVI International Conference to be held Dec. 8-11, 2025 in Clearwater Beach, Florida. The conference is co-organized by ASHRAE and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
The conference steering committee is seeking abstracts on the development of high-impact technologies and processes that are cost effective, reduce energy use and environmental consequences. Papers should demonstrate how the focus will lead to high performance buildings, demonstrate technologies ready for implementation and show the promise of short- to mid-term adoption. Selected papers will be offered the opportunity to be expanded and published in ASHRAE’s Science and Technology for the Built Environment.
New for the 2025 conference is the opportunity to present work to a broader audience through the Buildings XVI Poster Session. Students, post doc or masters, and early career professionals are encouraged to submit research via the poster session. Only an initial abstract and a poster is required.
The conference includes three tracks focused on principles (research and development), practices (applications and case studies) and residential buildings. Abstract submissions are due by Sep. 20. If accepted, papers will be due April 1, 2025. For more details, visit ashrae.org/BuildingsXVI.
