Achilles Leaving - Going East then South
Time is mercilessly marching on and the next Transsolar Academy (TSA) fellow is going to leave the company:
Achilles Ahimbisibwe is returning to Africa soon, but not directly, since he will go to the (link: https://www.conftool.com/plea2018/sessions.php text: “Passive and Low Energy Architecture” [PLEA] 2018) Conference in Hong Kong on Monday 10th of December to give his presentation titled (link: https://www.conftool.com/plea2018/index.php?page=browseSessions&form_session=27#paperID303 text: "Energy Efficient Buildings for Uganda. Accessibility, Reliability and Equal opportunity" ) and stand in for Wolfgang Kessling, Martin Engelhardt and Daniel Kiehlmann in the Transsolar presentation: (link: https://www.conftool.com/plea2018/index.php?page=browseSessions&form_session=1#paperID543 text: „Improve Outdoor Comfort In Urban Spaces; Demonstration Of Dry Mist Strategies In Tropical Climates“) and speak on the Universal Thermal Climate Index [UTCI].
Saying goodbye hurts, we will miss him as friendly colleague, sharing coffee together in a break and so much more….
The good thing is, what he let us now: „The TSA experience makes me feel optimistic about the future. I now appreciate that climate engineering can enhance building performance and architecture in Uganda.“ Read more in his interview.
Have a nice trip and stay in contact!
