Four industry experts join the Journal podcast to discuss the challenges of reducing operational and embodied carbon in building cooling systems. Space cooling accounted for nearly 16% of the global building sector’s electricity consumption in 2020 according to the International Energy Agency. Global demand for space cooling and the energy needed to provide it will continue to grow for decades to come, with the demand for cooling expected to triple by 2050. This podcast, sponsored by...

Covid has radically altered the way we work, with a hybrid approach seeing people spending as much time working from home as in the office. For companies to persuade people back to the office workplace and attract new talent, they now have to offer attractive, comfortable spaces that provide opportunities for creativity and collaboration. Lighting has a large part to play in making people feel healthy and comfortable at work, whether it’s through human human-centric lighting or access to...

How significant returns can be generated by upgrading building services infrastructure to achieve carbon savings and operational efficiencies The increased focus on whole life carbon in the design and procurement of buildings is having a seismic effect on services procurement and design. The carbon cost of embodied energy in existing buildings is leading many developers to refurbish their buildings rather than build from scratch. This podcast, sponsored by Grundfos, looks at the growing...

In this podcast, sponsored by Grundfos Pumps, we discuss the benefits of distributed pumping in HVAC applications. Danny Staerk and Glenn Miller look at how this approach helps save energy, simplifies balancing and reduces commissioning time. The Grundfos distributed pumping solution distributes chilled water in HVAC applications without the need for pressure-regulating valves. Staerk and Miller explain how savings of up to 54% in pump energy can be achieved by replacing throttling valves...

In this podcast, sponsored by Grundfos Pumps, we discuss the challenges and opportunities of realising the government’s ambition of significantly growing heat networks in the UK. The Committee on Climate Change has recommended that up to 18% of heat demand should be met by heat networks by 2050, and it has emphasised the importance of connecting non-domestic buildings to networks. It states that these should account for 53% of total heat delivered by heat networks by 2050. Grundfos’ Glenn...

Sponsored by Mitsubishi Electric Heat pumps are transforming heating and cooling in commercial buildings. This podcast featuring leading design and manufacturing experts discusses the impact of heat pumps on the commercial market and looks at the optimal design solutions for minimising energy use and carbon emissions. Areas covered include future-proofing developments, design challenges, heat recovery opportunities and the embodied energy of heat pumps. The guests in the CIBSE Journal...

Podcast from the CIBSE Young Energy Performance Group

Minimising the risk of COVID-19 in the built environment is the topic of the latest CIBSE Journal podcast. The authors of CIBSE’s COVID-19 Ventilation Guidance discuss the physics of virus transmission and how the infection risk can be minimised in buildings. Appearing on the podcast are Dr Shaun Fitzgerald, director, Centre for Climate Repair, University of Cambridge; Eimear Moloney director at Hoare Lea; Dr Chris Iddon, chair of the CIBSE Natural Ventilation Group and Abigail Hathway,...

CIBSE's Dr Anastasia Mylona explains what's in the new CIBSE TM59: Design methodology for the assessment of overheating risk in homes - designed to reduce the risk of a new or existing building getting too hot.

In the first podcast of 2017 I am joined by Ant Wilson MBE, Director of Building Engineering at AECOM, who reflects on his career and his inspirations following his recent honour.

Welcome to the fifth #Build2Perform podcast! This month is the last podcast of the year, and we'll be visiting the CIBSE Conference and Exhibition. In order to look at what the future of the industry might be, Patrick Bellew of Atelier Ten and Max Fordham take us for a look at the past.

Welcome to the fourth #Build2Perform podcast! This month, we're concentrating on the issue of indoor air quality. What is it, why is it important and what can engineers do about it? I'll be speaking to two experts in air quality, independent sustainability consultant Julie Godefroy and Alan Fogarty of Cundall, to answer those questions and more!

In the August #Build2Perform podcast, Matt talks to BIM consultant Carl Collins about the past, present and future of BIM. We also hear from a recent CIBSE West Midlands briefing on 'BIM in Action'.

The second monthly Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) Podcast. This month we're talking about women in Engineering and STEM, currently 12 per cent of the total workforce.
