Can We Achieve Net-Zero HVAC ?
eBook 정보
This book is born from a three-decade career spent at the forefront of global MEP consultancy, where I have witnessed firsthand the evolution from basic code compliance to the complex, performance-driven systems required today. The transition to Net-Zero HVAC is not an option; it is the new standard of care. It requires a fundamental shift in mindset—from viewing a mechanical system as a necessary cost center to recognizing it as an essential piece of global climate infrastructure.
The goal of this guide is to provide a complete, technical, and strategic roadmap for MEP consultants, engineers, architects, and building owners. We move beyond simple "green building" principles to establish a rigorous, three-pillar strategy: Reduce the Load, Electrify the Demand, and Supply with Clean Energy. The chapters that follow are organized to be a practical, sequential blueprint, detailing everything from the crucial role of the building envelope to the complexities of AI-driven controls and global refrigerant policy.
The time for incremental change is over. The technology for a zero-carbon future in our buildings is here, and the economics, when viewed through a life-cycle lens, are compelling. This book is a call to action: to transform our systems, to guarantee their performance.
