venticool is an international platform formed in 2012 focusing on ventilative cooling issues, with the overall goal to mobilize the ventilative cooling potential in terms of energy conservation, health, and comfort.〔BUILD UP energy solutions for better buildings: "(venticool Newsletter 1 )", October 2012〕〔European Solar Shading Organization (ES-SO), "(venticool the international platform for ventilative cooling )", Retrieved October 2014〕〔BUILD UP energy solutions for better buildings, "(venticool: the international platform for ventilative cooling )", September 2014〕 Within this platform ventilative cooling refers to the use of ventilation strategies to cool indoor spaces.〔venticool, the international platform for ventilative cooling, "(What is ventilative cooling? )", Retrieved October 2014〕 The most common technique is the use of increased ventilation airflow rates but other technologies may be considered as well.〔 The creation of the platform was triggered by increasing concerns for overheating risks and thermal comfort in low-energy buildings, while ventilative cooling strategies remain poorly considered in building regulations and scarcely well-implemented in practice.〔European Solar Shading Organization (ES-SO), "(Position paper for ventilative cooling )", Retrieved October 2014〕 These concerns are reinforced in particular by the 2020 objectives of the European Union 〔European Council for an Energy Efficient Economy: "(EPBD Recast (Directive 2010/31/EU)- EPBD RECAST APPROVED 19 MAY 2010 )", 2010〕 and the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). The platform’s main activities focus on communication, networking and awareness raising. They include the organization of events: conferences, workshops and webinars, as well as the production of publications: papers, reports, guidebooks etc.〔European Solar Shading Organization (ES-SO), "(venticool brochure )", Retrieved October 2014〕 == venticool & IEA EBC Annex 62 == venticool is the key partner in the communication and dissemination activities of the Annex 62 ‘ventilative cooling’ research project of the ‘Energy in Buildings and Communities Programme (EBC)’ of the International Energy Agency (IEA), an international collaborative project on ventilative cooling with a four year working phase (2014–2017).〔International Energy Agency’s Energy in Buildings and Communities Programme, "(EBC Annex 62 Ventilative Cooling )", Retrieved October 2014〕 The main aim of Annex 62 is to make ventilative cooling an attractive and energy efficient cooling solution to avoid overheating in both new and renovated buildings.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Venticool」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
