The 2022 IOR Annual Conference which will be held in Birmingham on 1 December 2022 will be focusing on the UK’s net-zero ambitions and what the RACHP industry is putting in place to meet these targets.
We are now launching a call for members and others who wish to present at the conference. In the first instance we would welcome a short abstract of your topic and approach, outlining practical low-carbon solutions that are achieving results. The themes of the conference are as follows:
- Rethinking Design: How we are designing differently to achieve low carbon or net-zero aims. Heat recovery, system integration, optimising efficiency, energy demand reduction, integration with renewable energy, innovative cycles, systems or products
- What is Sustainable Heating and cooling? Successfully addressing financial and environmental sustainability issues, achieving improved recycling and recovery, whole system efficiency models.
- Collaboration: Examples of how businesses are working across traditional business boundaries in consortium or collaborative approaches, sector or industry-based initiatives, policy success stories and international projects.
Further details on submitting to present are available on the conference webpage here. The deadline for applications is 5th August 2022.
