We are pleased to announce the release of AIVC Technical Note #74: Smart Ventilation in Residential Buildings—a comprehensive review aimed at summarizing the available evidence on the benefits of implementing smart ventilation solutions in homes.

This publication focuses on ventilation strategies and their effectiveness, which consists of IAQ benefits, non-IAQ benefits (such as thermal comfort and noise), minimizing energy consumption and minimizing utility bills, and other advantages related to indoor environmental quality (IEQ).

We are pleased to announce the release of a 2-page summary of the 2025 AIVC-Fraunhofer IBP Workshop, held in Stuttgart, Germany on April 1–2, 2025.

The workshop brought together researchers, engineers and international experts to share insights on a range of critical topics, including:

Join us in Madrid for the AIVC 2026 International Workshop on “Climate Change, Ventilation and Resilience”.
