On July 10, 2026, Chengdu pulsated with the glow of midsummer. The 11th Annual Conference of the Southwest Conference on Building Electricity (2026) was held at the Crowne Plaza Chengdu Wuhou. The conference was jointly organized by the China Southwest Architectural Design and Research Institute Corp., Ltd., the Building Electricity Technical Committee of the Sichuan Civil Engineering and Architecture Society, the Industrial and Building Power Supply Technical Committee of the Sichuan Society for Electrical Engineering, and the journal Building Electricity.
Under the motto "Electrification of Renewal – Smart Networking for the Future" – with a focus on urban renewal and the optimization of existing systems to build a new industrial ecosystem for building electrical systems – the conference actively responded to national policy initiatives by placing urban renewal and the modernization of existing and new buildings at its core. It provided a comprehensive platform for discussing how electrical design can be closely linked to smart building and green building concepts, thereby fostering collaborative innovation in design, technology application, and the industrial value chain. At the same time, it offered forward-looking insights and practical solutions for the sustainable development of the sector.
