How international collaboration is creating new tools and standards for building decarbonization

ASHRAE’s Task Force for Building Decarbonization (TFBD) was formed in Spring 2021 as an initiative of President Chuck Gulledge and President-Elect Mick Schwedler. Jurisdictions globally are confronting climate change and recognizing that building decarbonization is an important component in their efforts. ASHRAE recognizes that their long-standing initiatives in energy efficiency should be expanded to building decarbonization.
