The February 2026 edition of the REHVA Journal has been released, featuring the theme "Rising to New Challenges: Connecting IEQ to a Sustainable Future".
The issue includes, among other articles, selected contributions from the 45th AIVC conference and ASHRAE 2025 IEQ conference held on September 24-26, 2025, in Montreal, Canada together with the 13th TightVent and the 11th venticool conferences.
The AIVC together with Energie- und Umweltzentrum am Deister GmbH (e.u.[z.]) and TightVent are organizing a webinar on 17 March 2026 (10:00 - 11:30 CET) following up on contributions presented at the Buildair 2025 Symposium.

This webinar followed up on contributions presented at the Buildair 2025 Symposium in Hannover and brought these insights to a wider international audience.
We are pleased to announce that the programme for the AIVC 2026 workshop "Climate change, ventilation, and resilience" is now available. The event will take place on 21–22 April 2026 in Madrid.
The workshop will bring together researchers, professionals, and international experts to present and discuss recent advances addressing climate change challenges related to indoor environmental quality (IEQ), ventilation, human health, and sustainability.
The 2024 EPBD recast formally introduces Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) as a defined concept in EU law for the first time, embedding IEQ within the core objectives of the directive rather than treating it as a supplementary consideration...

In this design guideline, key points are explained to succeed in reducing energy use for HVAC systems with energy recovery systems. It covers the reduction of the heating and cooling need (load) due to ventilation and infiltration as well as the reduction of energy use for fans and heat generators. As background of the key points, performance indices and testing standards of energy recovery systems are explained.
As a follow-up regarding submissions for the AIVC–TightVent–Venticool 2026 Conference, “Innovations in Smart Ventilation and Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) for Resilient and Adaptive Buildings,” to be held on September 30 and October 1, 2026, in Incheon, Republic of Korea, we would like to remind authors of the following submission deadline.
