About the event
BSO-uSIM2026 - Simulating retrofit at scale. With most governments facing the immense challenge of meeting mid-century net zero targets, the need for modelling and simulation to support retrofitting has never been more apparent. BSO-uSIM brings together building performance simulation experts from academia and industry to explore key challenges, highlight new developments, and share best practice to help realise net zero.
Conference Themes
Original contributions are welcome from researchers and practitioners in these indicative areas:
AI, BIM, and new digital tools for urban retrofit
Archetypes and stock modelling at the urban scale
Calibration, validation and uncertainty in urban scale models
