M. Dennis Knight, P.E., BEMP, Fellow Life Member ASHRAE, will serve as the 2024-25 Society president. Knight's theme for the 2024-25 Society Year, “Empowering Our Workforce: Building a Sustainable Future.” The theme highlights the impact that our industry is making to address climate change, sustainable development, and indoor air quality, the emergence of new technologies to HVAC&R & Building Sciences, and how ASHRAE will be instrumental in attracting and developing the next generation of diverse professionals.“We have a perception problem,” said Knight. “Part of it is that our message about our vision for a sustainable future where buildings are energy efficient, healthy, and carbon neutral and our role in that work needs to be clarified! We all want to be involved in a career that we can be passionate about and where we can find meaning and purpose. We need to highlight our industry in a way that celebrates the ideas and innovations that emerge when we embrace and encourage greater diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
Knight is the founder of Whole Building Systems, LLC, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.
