Technology Awards

The deadline for Chapter level ASHRAE Technology Awards is fast approaching.  ASHRAE Technology Awards recognize outstanding achievements by members who have successfully applied innovative building design in the areas of occupant comfort, indoor air quality and energy conservation.

Awards are presented in six categories for new and existing facilities and are judged on the merits of Energy Efficiency, IAQ and Thermal Comfort, Innovation, Operation and Maintenance, Cost Effectiveness, Environmental Impact and Quality of Presentation.

Chapter level award applications require only a one page application, a schematic and a short narrative.

First place winners in each of the six categories at the chapter level will be submitted for judging in the regional awards competition.

The following link includes additional details about the awards program:
