Retrofit Meets is an in-person series of panel events bringing together experts in the built environment.?These are held in the seminar suites of the Building Centre. Chaired by Aylin Orbasli, a professor of Architecture at Oxford Brookes University, this panel will explore the retrofit of university buildings. Emily, National Key Account Manager of Panasonic Heating & Cooling Solutions Europe, will speak alongside other industry experts in the seminar, ‘Retrofit Meets: University Estates’.

The session includes experts from Panasonic - working closely with Finn Geotherm - Eckersley O’Callaghan and Hawkins\Brown- who retrofitted the University of West London, London South Bank University and The Bartlett School of Architecture respectively- will detail how they initially approached the brief and how they achieved their outcomes.

In her role at Panasonic Heating & Cooling, Emily covers all Public Sector projects including Social Housing and NHS/MOD projects and plays an active role in helping Public Sector organisations to reach their Net-Zero targets, whilst also providing high quality building stock.

Through retrofit technology in the HVAC industry, such as Panasonic’s cascade control, large university buildings can make an impact in sustainable heating and cooling solutions without compromising on overall efficiency; a key example of this retrofit success is Panasonic’s heating solution in Paragon House which can be seen within the Panasonic display at The Building Centre’s Retrofit 24.

‘Retrofit Meets: University Estates’ will run from 6-7:30pm next Thursday 2nd May at the Building Centre in London. To book a place, visit: Retrofit Meets Tickets
