The current development in building energy efficiency towards nZEB buildings represents a number of new challenges to design and construction. One of these major challenges is the increased need for cooling in these highly insulated and airtight buildings, which is not only present in the summer period but also in the shoulder seasons and in offices even in midwinter. Resilient ventilative cooling can be an energy efficient solution to address this cooling challenge in buildings.

This seminar presented work by the IEA EBC Annex 62 which was an international collaborative project on ventilative cooling; it had a four year working phase (2012-2018) and contribution by representatives from 20 universities, research institutes and private industries from 14 different countries from Europe, Japan, China and the US.
A collection of papers linked to ventilative cooling. The collection includes 212 papers presented at AIVC - venticool annual conferences and publications produced by the IEA-EBC annex 62.
