PhiusCon 2023

Houston, We Have Solutions

PhiusCon 2023 is headed to the Lone Star State! By hosting this year’s conference in Houston, we have our eyes set on the next frontier of passive building: hot and humid climates. The need for reliable, efficient buildings has never been greater in Texas and beyond, which is why now is the perfect time to expand Phius’ footprint in the south. Phius buildings are designed with the grid in mind – providing energy independence and hardening the larger grid system.

Despite the challenges posed, the Phius methodology has proven to be effective in hot and humid climates. PhiusCon 2023 will provide an entryway into the Phius community for local practitioners, developers and policymakers, equipping them with a blueprint to create more grid-friendly, healthy communities.

The Path to Zero Goes Through Houston

PhiusCon is North America’s leading passive building conference for zero energy design and construction, climate solutions, and building science expertise. Each year, PhiusCon attracts hundreds of architects, builders, engineers, policymakers and developers from across the globe with its combination of content-rich sessions and thought-provoking keynote addresses. This year's conference is scheduled for Nov. 7-10 in Houston, Texas.

In addition to sessions and plenaries, the four-day event features:
- An expansive exhibit hall featuring the top high-performance building manufacturers
- The awards ceremony for the annual Phius Passive Projects Design Competition
- The official PhiusCon After Party networking event
- A tour of local passive projects
