Preventing and adapting to the consequences of climate change in the face of extreme weather events is a task for society as a whole. That’s why BAU 2025 is focusing on climate friendly construction, with companies presenting possible solutions in Munich, Germany, from 13th – 17th January 2025.
Climate friendly construction is an approach to planning, constructing and operating the built environment in such a way that it has the least possible negative impact on the climate, while at the same time being resilient to climate change. The need for action is high particularly in densely populated areas, as the high-level of sealing and materials used exacerbate the urban heat island effect. BAU 2025 is a platform for exchanging ideas on forward-looking concepts, structural engineering solutions, and innovative building products, in order to work together on designing sustainable, climate friendly solutions.

“The construction industry is under pressure to drastically reduce carbon emissions and resource consumption. But that’s not all. Adapting to the consequences of climate change is also a transformational task that impacts the entire value chain. Our projects must make do with less energy and resources, and at the same time, achieve more – a truly Herculean task,” comments Dr Thomas Welter, federal managing director of the Association of German Architects (BDA).
The organisers of BAU concludes: “Climate friendly construction is an interdisciplinary task. That means that sharing knowledge, methods and approaches across traditional disciplinary boundaries is necessary in order to effectively meet the complex challenges of climate change. We are looking forward to companies discussing and presenting their solutions at BAU 2025.”
