See the Light 2010 - Building a Carbon Free Future

*SOLD OUT*

Croke Park Convention Centre, Dublin
Thursday 9th September 2010

The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland's (SEAI) Renewable Energy Information Office in association with the Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland (RIAI) are hosting the eighth See the Light conference on Thursday 9th September, at Croke Park, Dublin.

Over the years Ireland has faced and continues to deal with concerns over rising energy costs and the environmental consequences that come from the use of traditional energy sources. This and the recent introduction of national and international policies have brought about a fundamental rethink in the way we design, construct and operate buildings. As we move forward, it is becoming clear that building 'green' is very much at the heart of the government's decision making process. So much so that increasing the energy performance of Ireland's building stock and low energy building is fast becoming the preferred choice providing high quality, high efficiency, dynamic and cost effective solutions for consumers and businesses.

Highlights of See the Light 2010 - Building a Carbon Free Future include the launch of SEAI's Design Guidelines for Non Domestic Passive House Projects together with a policy round up with delegates being offered a rare and in-depth insight in the key principles and techniques in developing low energy, carbon neutral, energy plus and passive house projects to provide healthy and ecological building solutions.

This annual show case event for the built environment will be of particular interest to:

• the construction industry
• architects
• engineers
• energy & environmental consultants
• developers and installers
• local authority planners, engineers, Agenda 21 officers, housing & building departments
