About NZECB 2024 :
A net zero-energy building (NZEB) is a residential or commercial building with greatly decreased energy needs through efficiency gains such that the balance of energy needs can be supplied with renewable technologies. In other words, they are those which use no more energy from the utility grid than is provided by on-site renewable energy sources annually. These buildings use 50% to 70% less energy in comparison to traditional buildings. The remaining energy use comes from different renewable sources such as: solar panels or wind turbines incorporated into the facility itself.
To extremely reduce carbon emissions, every government and industry has a role to play. The goal of international conference of net zero energy commercial buildings is to bring together international institutions, companies, researchers, professionals, and students to share knowledge and experiences. In addition, the main objective is to grow the economic prosperity, while working towards carbon neutrality by 2050 (net zero 2050).
The international conference of net zero energy commercial buildings aims to bring together international institutions, companies, researchers, professionals, and students to share knowledge and experiences. Moreover, it is a good opportunity to support the ecological use of materials, the rational use of energy with renewable systems and energy-efficient buildings, the recycling processes and the management of waste generated in all these activities.
The international conference will gather like-minded industry experts and offer an opportunity for the industry to gather and keep up to-date with the latest innovations, best practice, and new technology solutions available in the marketplace. It is a key point to have pioneers, practitioners and futurists in an event where sustainable, regenerative innovations and applications will be presented and debated.
