Electrification and developing sustainable, resilient communities will help us achieve climate neutrality in the US, and the world. It is important to discuss ways to get there, including how we can approach clients to discuss the benefits of electrification. Beyond financials, the movement away from fossil fuels impacts our well-being and health, by reducing GHG emissions from our sites.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
  • Gain insight to the benefits for occupants when buildings and sites move away from fossil fuels and as we decarbonize our industry
  • Gain insight on integration with city, county and state goals for more sustainable and resilient communities, allowing for improved user experiences, and social well-being for the community
  • Discuss interactions with private and public clients and how electrification requirements differ based on their specific goals for sustainability, affordability, well-being and human experiences
  • Learn from example projects on how to achieve client’s electrification goals, which benefit the environmental aspects of reducing GHG emissions
