Representatives from Carmelsoft will be presenting two seminars at the ASHRAE Summer Meeting in Tampa on June 28, 2023. The first seminar is titled: "Seminar 54: Applying ASHRAE Guideline 20 to Creating Real World Built-Environment Use Cases". The second seminar is titled: "Seminar 67: Blockchain and the HVAC Industry: It's Not All About Cryptocurrencies".

The first seminar includes 3 separate talks on applying ASHRAE GPC-20 to developing engineering use cases. Stephen Roth from Carmelsoft talks about developing GPC-20 use cases for the creation of HVAC-related blockchain applications related to refrigerant production, distribution and capture. Amanda Webb from the University of Cincinnati talks about how GPC-20 use case documentation aided in the work on RP-1836, “Developing a Standardized Categorization System for Energy Efficiency Measures”. Nick Long from National Renewable Energy Lab discusses using GPC-20 to aid in developing use cases for a new ASHRAE standard SPC-232P, “Common Content and Specifications for Building Data Schemas.”

The second seminar will cover blockchain and HVAC. When people say blockchain, most people think of Bitcoin, the popular cryptocurrency that has real value. However, blockchain is more than just about cryptocurrencies. It's an entire platform that allows users to develop all new software tools not even remotely related to what exists today. The implications of blockchain are profound and span from major growth in data center applications, innovation in data center design, to software used in HVAC applications. This session will review 3 applications of blockchain that will reshape industries such as HVAC and the built environment.
