The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the Canada Green Building Council (CaGBC) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to work together to advance buildings that are healthy, productive, environmentally responsible and economically viable.

The memorandum calls for ASHRAE and CaGBC to join efforts in the development and maintenance of technical standards and guidelines, communications and marketing, and research and education of members and the building industry.

"Working with the CaGBC will allow us to improve on our efforts in achieving energy savings," said Terry Townsend, P.E., ASHRAE president.
