AIRAH has chosen Tasmania to host the third of its annual conferences dedicated to refrigeration.
Refrigeration 2013 – embracing the challenges and opportunities - will take place in Hobart on Friday May 10, 2013.
AIRAH CEO Phil Wilkinson, said the conference is a logical follow-up to the first two AIRAH dedicated refrigeration conferences – held in Melbourne in 2011 and Brisbane this year – which proved to be enormously popular and successful.
“AIRAH’s Refrigeration 2012 conference proved there is an absolute need for gatherings of this kind, so that information can be disseminated, and stories shared," he said.
Conference committee chair Stefan Jensen, said the conference theme of “Embracing the challenges and opportunities” reflects the need to deal with refrigeration issues post the imposition of the carbon-equivalent levy.
“Refrigeration 2013 – embracing the challenges and opportunities will deal with refrigeration issues in the age of the carbon levy,” Jensen said.
“There are many topics that need to be fleshed out in detail, and the conference will provide the opportunity to do this.”
AIRAH is calling for 300–400 word abstracts. Topics and case studies should cover a range of issues from standards and training to licensing, compliance, secondary refrigerants, system design and how to beat the levy.
Abstracts are due February 22, 2013.
