ATLANTA — ASHRAE’s LowDown Showdown competition, an event of the Building Performance Analysis Conference, returned Sept. 27-29 in Atlanta.
The LowDown Showdown sought to broaden the industry’s ability to engage architects, engineers, designers, and energy modelers to create an effective workflow and an outstanding design in real-word building efficiency challenges. The contest encouraged participants to work as integrated teams to use their design and modeling skills to create a near net-zero energy building.
