Nov. 5, 2004: ASHRAE To Develop Strategic Research Plan
ATLANTA - Over the years, the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) research program has been successful in providing new information for the HVAC industry. ASHRAE is now developing a strategic research planning process that will include creation of a five- to 10-year research plan. The plan will provide a guide for society-sponsored research over the next several years.
"We want to ensure that ASHRAE's research program is meeting the needs of members and those in the industry," said John Mitchell, chair of ASHRAE's Research Advisory Panel, which is preparing the plan. "Therefore, we are asking ‘What research should ASHRAE undertake to meet the challenges of the next five to 10 years?'"
