New Wind Power Course + 3 New Webinars



Summer’s heating up at RedVector with more sizzling new content! We’ve added a cutting-edge wind power course plus three LIVE webinars for April and May—including an introduction to Net Zero buildings and an inside look at environmental encroachment.

Wind Power Today
What’s happening right now in the field of wind energy? Find out in this eye-opening course, which delves into the expansion of the wind industry and discusses the latest research and development concerning turbine technology, component development/testing, offshore technology and more. Ideal for architects, engineers and energy professionals, this course also looks at current research being conducted under the Department of Energy’s wind program.


WEBINARS:


An Introduction to Environmental Encroachment (4/18, 1:00-2:00 EST)
This interactive, one-hour webinar explores the many types of encroachment that threaten the environment and our communities—including agricultural, open space, wetland, desertification, desert degradation, habitat destruction, invasive species, floodplain development, bush, forestland, maritime, noise, and light. Case study examples highlight the different types of environmental encroachment and the importance of collaboration to remedy the growing problem.

An Introduction to Net Zero Buildings (4/30, 1:00-4:00 EST)
A building with zero net energy consumption and zero carbon emissions may seem like a lofty goal, but it’s one that’s gaining particular momentum in the design and construction industry. This three-hour webinar explores the broad definition of ‘Net Zero’ buildings and looks at the different types of Net Zero techniques and technologies. Case study examples illustrate the worldwide application of Net Zero building and help professionals understand its marketability and affordability.

HVAC Design Overview (5/8, 1:00-2:00 EST)


Engineer and Certified Energy Manager Jim Taube leads a thought-provoking discussion about the general guidelines used in the design of HVAC air systems, which can apply to many types of facilities including medical, pharmaceutical, laboratory, and industrial manufacturing environments. Ideal for engineers, architects and facility managers, this one-hour webinar explores HVAC fundamentals such as refrigeration, heat transfer and psychrometrics and discusses the various methods of air distribution.
