IEA ECBCS : Annex 46
Holistic Assesment Tool-Kit on Energy Efficient Retrofit Measures for Government Buildings (EnERGo)
Energy Efficient Technologies for Buildings? New and Retrofits New York

The New York Skyline
"Energy Efficient Technologies for Government Buildings
New and Retrofits" First Announcement
New York,New York, USA, January 16-18, 2008

Organized by: Engineer Research And Development Center (ERDC), Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL)

Co-Sponsored by: The U.S. Department Of Defense, The US Department of Energy,  The International Energy Agency's, ASHRAE , IEA ECBCS Annex 46

The workshop is designed for building energy managers, design engineers and architects, contractors and investors, decision-makers, energy auditors and Energy Services Companies.  Previous workshops took place in Orlando (February 2005), Chicago (January 2006) and in Dallas, TX (January 2007) and brought together a diverse group of international facility energy experts. The workshop will provide a forum to share the information on different national and international energy conservation programs, energy saving technologies, and measures for new buildings and building retrofits.
