Society News
CT ASHRAE would like to share the following news from Society
What is Vision 2035?
- Vision 2035 and previous long-range vision plan editions serve as time-bound milestones advancing ASHRAE’s overall Mission and Vision.
- Vision 2035 provides guidance for continuity across Strategic Plans through 2035.
- Vision 2035 and Strategic Plans should be flexible and feed back into each other as dynamic/living documents. Previous long range vision statements serve as a basis for Vision 2035.
- Society themes are tactical chapters within the longer-term Strategic Plans and Vision 2035. They bridge short-term priorities with the longer-term Strategic Plans and Vision 2035.

ASHRAE, UNEP Renew Environmental Partnership
ATLANTA (September 10, 2026) – ASHRAE and the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) have renewed their longstanding partnership to advance sustainable refrigeration and air conditioning, signing a new Memorandum of Understanding that strengthens cooperation on lifecycle refrigerant management, energy efficiency, technology, safety and capacity building in developing countries.

Application Guide for Large Thermal Energy Storage
Thermal energy storage (TES) allows the use of intermittently generated energy (energy available only during certain periods, such as that from wind or solar), or energy waste streams from industrial processes, and can be designed to charge, store, and discharge energy daily, weekly, or seasonally.
Application Guide for Large Thermal Energy Storage examines the analysis of large thermal energy storage conducted by an international team led by the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (ERDC-CERL), and sponsored by the office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Energy and Sustainability.
The analysis of 10 cold/moderate climate zones and 8 hot climate zones was conducted to determine under which circumstances large-scale TES improves energy supply systems’ resilience, reduces CO2 emissions, and is cost-effective in different climates, energy prices, and economic incentives.
