Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6669237
The mission of the US Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Buildings and Community Systems (OBCS) is to lead a national effort to achieve maximum, cost-effective energy productivity in the buildings sectors. To achieve this mission, OBCS is generating new technologies, research findings, methods, and databases in a wide range of building performance areas. The OBCS technology transfer program attempts to promote adoption and use of these research and development results. The OBCS technology transfer program seeks to enhance the adoption process by developing and implementing a system to transfer R D results quickly, efficiently, and effectively to private- and public-sector users. The program supports technology transfer activities that will have a long-term, positive impact on the design, construction, and maintenance of energy-efficient buildings and community systems. Our focus is on promoting familiarity and confidence in OBCS products. This progress report provides an overview of the specific projects undertaken over the past year with support from the program. It concludes with a list of publications. 27 refs.
