The objective of this AIVC workshop was to discuss and identify ways to improve the quality of our homes with respect to airtightness and ventilation, as well as discussing the impact suboptimal performance has on energy consumption and health of the occupants. Also of interest were the impacts of mandatory airtightness targets and how best to implement these, if at all.

In order to reduce the energy use of buildings, policy makers impose stringent requirements with regard to energy performance of new buildings and renovated buildings, and the use of renewable resources. Most compliance checks and labelling of the energy performances of buildings are done in the design phase by calculating the theoretical energy use. But, despite regulation and policy enforcements, monitoring of actual energy performances reveals in many cases a significant gap with theoretically designed targets.

A proposal for the formation of a new IEA EBC Annex on the topic of Resilient Cooling was presented to the Executive Committee (ExCo) of the International Energy Agency’s Energy in Buildings and Communities programme (IEA EBC) in November 2018.
The ExCo welcomed the idea in general and started the Annex definition phase.
According to the Annex Development and Quality Assurance Process the Annex Concept now is further developed towards a draft Annex Text which will be proposed to the ExCo at its next meeting at Stockholm in June 2018.
