Seminar 72 -- Next Generation Window Technologies for Net Zero Energy Buildings

This product is a zip file that contains files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker, PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3 format) as noted.

In the last couple of decades, several cutting-edge window technologies have been commercialized, enabling buildings to become net zero energy or even net positive energy. These technologies range from highly insulating glazing and frames to solar control glass coatings and dynamic glazing and shading solutions. This seminar will review major advancements in windowtechnologies and the ways they will affect building energy performance, human comfort and future built environment.
