Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In this talk, Prof. Jesus Lizana will present the latest research from the ZERO Institute at the University of Oxford on zero-carbon heating and cooling. The talk will examine the role of the building sector in achieving net-zero targets by 2050, drawing on new evidence from citizen-powered climate observations and projections to understand future shifts in heating and cooling demand. It will also showcase Oxford’s recent innovations in materials, software, and technologies to accelerate heating decarbonisation, alongside advances in sustainable cooling to support global climate adaptation. The presentation will discuss the key steps required to deliver resilient, net-zero building services worldwide.
