Energy and climate goals have been shaping many countries’ policy and legislative agendas in the EU and beyond in the past decade. The building sector plays a crucial role in achieving these goals, considering the energy use attributed to buildings and its huge potential for improved energy performance.
Better performing buildings must ensure an acceptable Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ), by providing higher Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and comfort levels for their occupants. Building ventilation entails both challenges and opportunities to achieve this goal.
A specific challenge lies in providing smart ventilation—i.e., the desired IAQ benefits while minimising energy use, utility bills and other non-IAQ costs (such as thermal discomfort and noise). Building ventilation should also help prevent overheating with little energy use. Nevertheless, the correct functioning of ventilation systems, whether natural, mechanical or hybrid should not be compromised by excessive infiltration and uncontrolled airflows. While experience shows that these hurdles are difficult to pass, they also represent fantastic opportunities for design, method, and product development.
This is the context defining the core theme of the joint 39th AIVC, 7th TightVent and 5th venticool Conference as “Smart ventilation for buildings”.
The event will place its focus on:
The conference will consist of 3 parallel tracks largely devoted to:
The conference will consist of a mixture of:

About CETIAT
CETIAT (Centre Technique des Industries Aérauliques et Thermiques) is the French technical centre for the heating, ventilation and air conditioning industries. It was set up in 1960 to serve manufacturers of HVAC systems, i.e. 360 companies manufacturing ventilation systems, ducts, air diffusers, fans, air filters, heat exchangers, heat pumps, etc. CETIAT runs co-operative research for its members, linked to energy and environmental issues, indoor environment quality, and integration and controls of systems. This research is often operated in partnership with other organisations, at national and international level. CETIAT has also an activity of independent testing and research centre, performing tests, calibrations, consultancy and training, based on four main skills: fluid mechanics, thermal science, acoustics, metrology. CETIAT is involved in several European and international standardisation groups. A substantial part of its activity is to disseminate information.
About ADEME
The French environment and energy management agency (ADEME) is active in the implementation of public policy in the areas of the environment, energy and sustainable development. The Agency provides expertise and advisory services to businesses, local authorities and communities, government bodies and the public at large, to enable them to establish and consolidate their environmental action. As part of this work ADEME helps finance projects, from research to implementation, in the areas of waste management, soil conservation, energy efficiency and renewable energy, raw materials savings, air quality, noise abatement, circular energy transition and food wastage abatement. ADEME is a public agency under the joint authority of the Ministry for an Ecological and Solidary Transition and the Ministry for Higher Education, Research and Innovation.
About AIVC
The AIVC (www.aivc.org) activities are supported by the following countries: Australia, Belgium, China, Denmark, France, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Republic of Korea, Spain, Sweden, UK and USA.
Created in 1979, the Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre (www.aivc.org) is one of the projects/annexes running under the International Energy Agency's Energy in Buildings and Communities Programme. With the support of 15 member countries as well as key experts and two associations (REHVA, IBPSA, ISIAQ), the AIVC offers industry and research organisations technical support aimed at better understanding the ventilation challenges and optimising energy efficient ventilation
Since 1980, the annual AIVC conferences have been the meeting point for presenting and discussing major developments and results regarding infiltration and ventilation in buildings. AIVC combines forces with the TightVent Europe and venticool platforms aiming at facilitating exchanges and progress on airtightness and ventilative cooling issues, which are major topics of this conference
About TightVent Europe
TightVent Europe (www.tightvent.eu) aims at facilitating exchanges and progress on building and ductwork airtightness issues, including the organization of conferences and workshops. It fosters experience sharing as well as knowledge production and dissemination on practical issues such as specifications, design, execution, control, etc., taking advantage of the lessons learnt from pioneering work while keeping in mind the need for adequate ventilation.
TightVent Europe has been initiated by INIVE EEIG (International Network for Information on Ventilation and Energy Performance) with at present the financial and/or technical support of the following partners: Lindab, MEZ-TECHNIK, Retrotec, BlowerDoor GmbH, Eurima, Soudal, Gonal, SIGA, Buildings Performance Institute Europe and the Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy.
About venticool
venticool (venticool.eu) is the international ventilative cooling platform launched in October 2012 to accelerate the uptake of ventilative cooling by raising awareness, sharing experience and steering research and development efforts in the field of ventilative cooling. The platform supports better guidance for the appropriate implementation of ventilative cooling strategies as well as adequate credit for such strategies in building regulations. The platform philosophy is pull resources together and to avoid duplicating efforts to maximize the impact of existing and new initiatives.
venticool has been initiated by INIVE EEIG (International Network for Information on Ventilation and Energy Performance) with the financial and/or technical support of the following partners: Agoria‐NAVENTA, Velux, ES-SO, Wienerberger, WindowMaster, CIBSE nvg, the Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy and REHVA.
About INIVE
INIVE EEIG (International Network for Information on Ventilation and Energy Performance) was created in 2001 as a so-called European Economic Interest Grouping. The main reason for founding INIVE was to set up a worldwide acting network of excellence in knowledge gathering and dissemination. At present, INIVE has 9 member organisations (BBRI, CETIAT, CSTB, eERG, IBP-Fraunhofer, SINTEF, NKUA, TMT US and TNO) (www.inive.org)
INIVE is, at present coordinating and/or facilitating various international projects, e.g. the Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre –AIVC (www.aivc.org), Dynastee (www.dynastee.info), the Indoor Environmental Quality – Global Alliance–IEQ-GA (http://ieq-ga.net/), the TightVent Europe platform (www.tightvent.eu ), and venticool (www.venticool.eu) platforms. INIVE has also coordinated the ASIEPI project (www.asiepi.eu , 01/10/2007 – 31/03/2010) dealing with the evaluation of the implementation and impact of the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, the QUALICHeCK project and platform (http://qualicheck-platform.eu/ , 01/03/2014 – 28/02/2017) aiming towards improved compliance and quality of the works for better performing buildings as well as the European portal on Energy Efficiency -BUILD UP (www.buildup.eu).
