Building owners and specifiers can experience design flexibility, reduced operational costs and reliable, energy-efficient comfort year-round with variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems even in extreme cold climates. Modern VRF systems far exceed the capabilities of conventional heat pumps at low outdoor ambient temperatures. They are positioned to replace fossil fuel burning equipment in almost any climate.

ABB urges greater adoption of high-efficiency motors and drives to combat climate change - global electricity consumption to be reduced by 10%.

One of the largest HVAC loads in commercial buildings results from the combining of ventilation air with that of heating and cooling air. 

This white paper is intended to provide guidance for owners of commercial buildings, including K-12 schools, higher education campuses, and office buildings, to consider while returning to occupancy during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Hydrogen Program Plan (the Program Plan or Plan) outlines the strategic high-level focus areas of DOE’s Hydrogen Program. 

Budget and delivery speed have always been challenges when designing an HVAC or pressure boosting system, but system efficiency is becoming a bigger concern every year.

This year, more than 181 million square feet were added in 2019, an 8% increase in the buildings committed. 

Even though the majority of facility managers (80%) believe that the demand for data will be greater over the next five years, many of them are not fully or regularly using data to improve their situation.

This report provides the results of a recent OSIsoft survey on how more than 700 facility managers in the United States leverage performance data and what challenges they commonly encounter.

Establishing enhanced routine cleaning and disinfection procedures in offices, factories, distribution warehouses, call centers, pharmacies, grocery stores, and other non-health care workplaces is a critical step in reducing exposures and the risk of infection.
