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.
