Video: AIVC – History, Mission and Future

During the EBC Technical Day held at CEPT University in November 2025, Arnold Janssens, Operating Agent of the Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre (AIVC), delivered a presentation on the history, mission and recent achievements of AIVC.

In this talk, he highlights the role of AIVC as the information centre on energy-efficient ventilation for good indoor air quality within the IEA Energy in Buildings and Communities (EBC) Programme, as well as its long-standing contribution to the dissemination of knowledge on air infiltration and ventilation in buildings. Recent outcomes on smart ventilation assessment are also highlighted.

Established more than four decades ago, AIVC is today the longest-running ongoing EBC Annex, supporting research and knowledge exchange on ventilation, energy performance and indoor environmental quality (IEQ).
