TRANSFER BY BUS FROM AJACCIO: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 (AROUND 7PM) - SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29 (AROUND 10AM). ACCOMMODATIONS AT THE INSTITUTE OR IN THE VILLAGE (15MIN WALK)
OBJECTIVES:
The purpose of this five-day event is for participants to gain a thorough understanding of NetZero Energy Buildings (NetZEBs). The week will be divided into two main activities. Over the course of the 5 days participants will work in groups comprising architects, engineers and analysts emulating the Integrated Design Process (IDP) that is such an integral part of NetZEB design. The IDP teams will spend their week in competition with each other to design the best NetZEB for their climate. The basis of their work will be the 30 NetZEBs in the database of SubTask C (Advanced Building Design, Technologies and Engineering). They will identify and then model architectural, energy efficiency and energy generation innovative solutions sets for their buildings.
The days are organized around morning workshops with design studio work and review sessions for the rest of the day. The morning workshops will focus on modeling (daylighting, natural ventilation..) design goal setting, Post-Occupancy Evaluation, and the role of users. The focus of the whole week will be producing proof of performance.
