call for abstracts for Solar 2010 is out. For those of you who have never been,
it’s a really high quality solar energy conference hosted by the American
Solar Energy Society. Ed Mazria, Baruch Givoni and other building science
legends are normally regulars at the conference, so it’s a pretty
exciting learning opportunity. The conference typically has a very strong building
science track, with technical papers on various topics ranging from natural
ventilation & daylighting to hybrid ventilation systems and passive solar
simulation techniques. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
