Content Description

In response to the urgent global imperative for sustainable infrastructure in the face of climate change, ASHRAE’s Task Force for Building Decarbonization and the American Society for Health Care Engineering have developed Decarbonizing Hospital Buildings, a guide focused on the design, construction, and operation of decarbonized new hospital buildings and major renovations. Due to their complexity, hospitals require special attention if they are to meet the challenge of zero operational carbon by 2030, as recommended by the ASHRAE Position Document on Building Decarbonization. Addressing the unique challenges healthcare facilities face, Decarbonizing Hospital Buildings navigates the complex landscape of definitions and standards surrounding zero emissions buildings, focusing on ASHRAE’s robust framework for decarbonization. This guide offers practical strategies for achieving carbon neutrality by 2030. From optimizing process loads to leveraging advanced thermal energy solutions, every aspect of hospital design, construction, and operation is meticulously examined. Key features include the following: • Detailed exploration of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions within the context of hospital infrastructure. • Integration of ASHRAE standards with international best practices for comprehensive carbon accounting. • Practical methodologies for calculating and reducing both operational and embodied carbon. • Case studies and expert insights from leading healthcare organizations on successful decarbonization strategies. Intended for stakeholders in the design, construction, and operation of hospital buildings, this indispensable resource provides actionable insights into procuring environmental attributes and implementing effective offsets. It complements ASHRAE’s broader series on building decarbonization, ensuring seamless integration of hospital-specific guidance into overarching sustainability goals.

About ASHRAE

ASHRAE, founded in 1894, is a building technology society with more than 50,000 members worldwide. The Society and its members focus on building systems, energy efficiency, indoor air quality and sustainability within the industry. Through research, standards writing, publishing and continuing education, ASHRAE shapes tomorrow’s built environment today.

 

ASHRAE was formed as the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers by the merger in 1959 of American Society of Heating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHAE) founded in 1894 and The American Society of Refrigerating Engineers (ASRE) founded in 1904.
