The ASHRAE Technology Awards recognize outstanding achievements by members who have successfully applied innovative building design in the areas of occupant comfort, indoor air quality (IAQ) and energy conservation.

Their designs incorporate ASHRAE standards for effective energy management and IAQ. Performance is proven through one year’s actual, verifiable operating data. The following are descriptions of projects from the ASHRAE Technology Award winners and honorable mentions. Articles about these projects will be published in this and future issues of ASHRAE Journal.
