Join us in the fight to eliminate building energy waste. BTO, five national laboratories, and a dozen industry partners are working to solve some pretty big challenges in building technology and we need your input.
If you are interested in science and technology, or work in these areas, we want to hear from you!
Take a look at the each of our current calls for innovation and share your thoughts and ideas:
- Building Robotics and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (LBNL) are seeking ideas to design and develop a proof of concept mean radiant temperature (MRT) sensor that can be integrated with Building Robotics' Comfy offering.
- Clean Energy Trust and Argonne National Lab (ANL) are seeking ideas to identify an accurate and stable humidity sensor technology that promises performance improvements over the market's existing sensors.
- Emerson Climate Technologies and Oak Ridge National Lab (ORNL) are seeking ideas to develop a new air flow measurement tool or system to measure total system airflow across an indoor ducted furnace, heat pump or central AC system.
- Honeywell and ORNL are seeking ideas to identify a new architecture, the next generation of Direct Expansion (DX) supermarket refrigeration systems or modification to current standard DX system.
- Honeywell and ORNL are seeking ideas for a new compression technology or improvements in current compression technology to reach significantly higher efficiencies.
- IntelliChoice Energy and ORNL are seeking ideas to redesign an exhaust-to-coolant heat exchanger to decrease the overall foot-print of the ICEHP and reduce the system’s initial cost.
