The seventh episode of the AIRAH on Air podcast was recorded at the Melbourne Forum on June 25, 2019.
The Melbourne Forum aims to increase the development and refurbishment of our built environment to achieve greater levels of sustainable performance. The series facilitate a unique space for leading practitioners and policymakers in the sector to come together and discuss sustainability issues, as well as technologies and developments. It also offers a platform for the sharing of ideas and experiences. It is supported by Sustainability Victoria, the University of Melbourne, RMIT University and AIRAH. For more on the Melbourne Forum, please visit: bit.ly/2VYxlwr
In the first of three recordings from the 2019 event, we hear from Dr Nicola Willand, a lecturer at RMIT University’s School of Property, Construction and Project Management. In her presentation, Willand explains the concept of energy poverty; how it can be measured and understood; who’s most vulnerable; the social implications; and what can be done to assist those struggling to cool or heat their homes.
Guests:• Dr Nicola Willand, RMIT University’s School of Property, Construction and Project Management lecturer
Stay tuned to AIRAH on Air for more on the topic of energy poverty. In the coming weeks, we’ll have two more episodes featuring talks by Kerry Connors, associate director, research at Energy Consumers Australia, and Michele Burton, senior project adviser of sustainable homes at Sustainability Victoria.

Melbourne Forum - What is Energy Poverty, and how does it affect HVAC&R?

Last year at AIRAH’s Building Physics Forum in Melbourne, Clare Parry, M.AIRAH, from Grün Consulting presented on how to create high-performance buildings with the help of the Passivhaus methodology.
In this episode of AIRAH on Air, you’ll hear her present a detailed case study of Australia’s first scale Passivhaus building: Gillies Hall at Monash University’s Peninsula Campus in Frankston, Melbourne. She also expands on this – and on the increasing prevalence of Passivhaus principles – in an interview with AIRAH’s Mark Vender

Passivhaus at Scale - Clare Parry, Grün Consulting

As AIRAH celebrates 100 years, we commemorate not just our Institute’s history but also our members and their contributions to heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration. In this episode of AIRAH on Air, we talk to two former AIRAH Presidents about the state of HVAC&R.

In an interview with Ecolibrium editor Matt Dillion, Sean Treweek, F.AIRAH, and Ania Hampton, M.AIRAH, detail their careers in the hidden industry; offer predictions for where it’s going; talk experiences with AIRAH; and provide advice for those interested in a career in an essential industry.

“If you look at HVAC&R, we are so deeply embedded in everybody’s lives at every moment,” says Ania Hampton, pointing to its impact on agriculture, healthcare, and beyond. “People take what we do for granted.”

Guests:
Sean Treweek, F.AIRAH, CEO at Meinhardt Australia
Ania Hampton, M.AIRAH, Director at Edefice

Sean and Ania were also profiled as two of AIRAH’s 100 Faces. Read their Q&As and meet other notable people, places, and objects from AIRAH’s history and the HVAC&R industry at https://www.airah100.org.au/faces.html

AIRAH celebrates 100 – an interview with two former Presidents

On Oct 23 and 24 at AIRAH’s Building Physics Forum in Melbourne, over 100 attendees came together from the fields of building science, architecture and design to discuss topics related to different areas in constructed performance. From air movement to thermal performance, control of moisture, passive house principles, and window design, it was an insightful two days of discussions into how we can create buildings that are more environmentally effective, comfortable and healthier for their occupants.
Mark Vender, editor of HVAC&R Nation, was at the 2019 Building Physics Forum. He caught up with a couple of the speakers to hear further insights into the importance of building physics. We also hear from Jenny Edwards – owner, managing director and lead scientist at Light House Architecture & Science – with her presentation: “.”Designing and building, cost-effective, high-performance homes: lessons learned
Guests:

Marcela Brauner, Holistic Building Services
