Wednesday, 21 Oct 2026 @ 11:15 am - 12:15 pm
Hall 1, DWTC

"An exploration of how extreme desert heat forces a shift from power-hungry mechanical cooling to passive architecture, heat-reflective materials, and advanced district cooling systems to keep future cities livable.
Key Focus Areas:
- Urban heat island mitigation
- Shading and passive cooling
- Solar-integrated architecture
- District cooling innovation"
