There is a UK shortfall of 200,000 green-skills installation workers including 100,000 heat-pump installers. This lack of a skilled labour force may have a detrimental impact for homes wanting to decarbonise. #decarbonization #netzero #solarpv #heatpumps #energyefficiency #energysaving #retrofitting #energystorage #evcharging #greenskills
NYBMA President, Resident Manager, 32BJ GREEN instructor and 32BJ Advisory Council. Cooperation and efficiency. Let's make NYC better place to live
This post is intended for 32BJ union members who wish to gain insight into the methodology behind the calculation of their building's energy grade and the associated carbon footprint penalty. You will gain insight into how to reduce energy consumption in your building, enhance your building's energy grade, and mitigate the carbon footprint penalty, which may already effects your building’s budget. The in-person session will commence on Monday, September 23rd at 6PM at our union headquarters, located at 25 W18. This event is free of charge for all 32BJ members only. Don't fall behind. It is important to note that an energy grade and a carbon penalty are two distinct issues that require timely attention to prevent any potential issues with the building. Furthermore, many upgrades may be offset by rebates and paid to your building. Property managers, building superintendents and resident managers, please encourage your staff to attend this class. #sustainability #energygrade #superintendents #residentmanager #building #energy #training #conservation #NYC #buildings #Submetering #NYSERDA #32BJ #greenbuilding #commissioning #carbonfootprint #carbonfootprintreduction #carbonfootprintpenalty #energystar #carbontax #buildingenergyefficiencyrating #efficiencyrating #submetering #reduceemissions #DOB #energymanagement #lighting #boilers #hvac #handyman #higherelectriccost #electricalenergy #electrilbill #tuneup #opportunity #grateful #leader #32bj #training #development #peakdemand #propertymanagement #sustainability #energyefficiency #greenenergy #climatemobilization #locallaws #locallaw97 #ll97 #locallaw95 #ll95 #LL84 #LL87 #LL88 #LL85 #nycbuildings #sustainableliving #sustainableenergy #decarbonization #carbonreduction #comply #NYBMA #Heatpump #VFD #Heattimer #ETV #budget #LL #localLaw #freecooling #freeheating #REM #FirstServiceResidential #FirstService #FRS #HalsteadManagementCompany #Halstead #DouglasEllimanPropertyManagement #DouglasElliman #AKAM #RudinManagementCompany #Rudin #EquityManagement #Equity #RoseAssociates #rose #TheBrownHarrisStevens #BrownHarrisStevens #BHS
We've written an open letter to Michael Gove. Here's why. 👇 The proposed Future Homes Standard doesn't go far enough and won't help the UK meet its legally binding net-zero targets and lower household energy bills. That's why we've collaborated with other built environment leaders to call for improvements to the proposed FHS. Led by Bioregional and Good Homes Alliance, our open letter sets out where we believe the standard falls short, and what should be done to improve it. Join us and support the growing campaign by doing two things: 1: Sign the open letter by Thursday 29 February 👉 https://lnkd.in/djgbBTWB 2. Submit your response to the consultation with robust evidence by Wednesday 6 March 👉 https://lnkd.in/ez4ipmqd Do you agree with us? Are there any other areas of the FHS that you think should go further? Let us know in the comments below. #builtenvironment #sustainabledevelopment #FHS #futurehomesstandard #netzero
This was a historic week at POW– normally we advocate for and influence existing legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) aka the biggest and boldest climate legislation ever. This week we worked with legislators to develop original federal legislation focused on incentivizing clean energy transmission development. If you were to plot “transmission” on an x and y axis, it would fall into the “least sexy” and “most important” quadrants. #challengeaccepted. Enter Protect Our Winters, with our gold medal-winning athletes, deeply knowledgeable scientists, and committed brand partners like REI and Burton Snowboards. We still have a few more triple backflips ahead of us: bipartisan support, moving through a (no pun intended) gridlocked Congress etc. Luckily, we like the crux pitch of a climb.

A huge week!! Over the last 18 months, POW has worked tirelessly with partners to support common ground, common sense legislation. Introducing: The Energizing Our Communities Act (EOCA). We are thrilled to announce the introduction of the Energizing Our Communities Act, a bill sponsored by Rep. Annie Kuster (D-NH) and Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT). The bill was introduced in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate on April 18, and publicly announced on Earth Day. “This legislation is a testament to the power of how a team of passionate athletes, creatives, scientists, brands, and policymakers can come together to build a better future." - Erin Sprague, CEO, POW What is the EOCA? The EOCA is designed to ease local permitting gridlock by reinvesting funds from DOE loan programs into communities that host clean energy infrastructure. At POW, we advocate and lobby for clean energy development and deployment, finding that transmission remains one of the biggest barriers to scaling clean energy. That is – delivering energy from the source to the customer. Point A to point B. ⚡There is currently 1,400 GW of available energy (90% of which is for zero-carbon energy like solar, wind and battery storage) seeking connection to our grid. We want to help make that happen!⚡ In the last three years, significant progress has been made in the energy transition - through the Inflation Reduction Act and the Investment in Infrastructure and Jobs Act. Huge investments are making their way into the clean energy sector, but permitting at the local level is stalling out new transmission development. To address this, we believe communities that host this clean energy infrastructure deserve to be supported in turn. The EOCA will bring REAL benefits to these communities. Through this bill, communities that host clean energy infrastructure will receive economic assistance for things like roads, bridges, schools, libraries, first responders, outdoor recreation, stewardship, and more. “This bill addresses outdated infrastructure, bureaucratic hurdles and NIMBYism, offering tangible benefits to communities embracing clean energy infrastructure.” - Ben Gubits, Vice President of Campaigns and Advocacy, POW Learn more about POW’s legislation on our site 👇 “Communities coast to coast in all seasons are seeing undeniable impacts of climate change. The science is clear, and the moment is now - we need to rapidly scale our ability to get more clean energy onto the grid, and I’m proud to support the Energizing Our Communities Act.” - Jeremy Jones, Founder, POW The energy transition ensures a future of clean air, clean water, and a livable planet.

I’m blown away by the work of whole team at Protect Our Winters in introducing the Energizing Our Communities Act (EOCA) this week! Finishing Earth Month strong. 🌍 💪 It’s time to change the clean energy narrative from deprivation to energy abundance. We have technology, there are ample renewable energy sources, we just need to electrify everything (thanks Saul Griffith). The IRA started the work, and EOCA aims to accelerate the transition to a zero carbon energy system by addressing the challenges of building out transmission. Communities should benefit from the development projects they host, and that is exactly what the EOCA will do. The EOCA is intended to ensure there are added benefits and guaranteed incentives to local communities where energy development occurs and or where transmission lines are built and to help with approval for these projects I love this point: ⚡There is currently 1,400 GW of available energy (90% of which is for zero-carbon energy like solar, wind and battery storage) seeking connection to our grid.

Our partners over at Protect Our Winters have introduced their first piece of legislation into Congress, the Energizing Our Communities Act (EOCA) and I hope you'll join me in contacting your legislators and advocating for them to support this incredibly important bill. ⚡️Why is it so important? According to a new report from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, as of December 2023, proposed projects encompassing nearly 2,600 gigawatts (GW) — or 2.6 terawatts — were making their way through the series of studies and steps required to plug into the power grid. Almost all of this backlog, known as the interconnection queue, consists of clean energy — and it’s mostly from solar and batteries. Additionally there is currently 1,400 GW of available energy (90% of which is for zero-carbon energy like solar, wind and battery storage) seeking connection to our grid. 🤔What does EOCA do? Quite simply EOCA carves out a community benefit fund which brings money back into the communities that transmission runs through. 20% of that will go to things like conservation, trails, public lands, etc., and 80% of it will be used however the community deems fit: think roads, schools, or affordable housing as examples of what a community could spent the money on. These funds are also distributed to counties and tribal governments hosting infrastructure equally, and allows for expedited permitting of transmission projects without having to actually change permitting policy. 🗳️Here's what you can help Click the link below to learn more about EOCA, and take action directly from the page. Even better call or write your Federal representatives (US Senator and Congressperson) and ask them to support EOCA. It's up to us to define what's possible, and thanks to POW, here's another way that we can collectively drive the systemic change that's needed to get to the decarbonized future that's an imperative for our species. Lastly, a huge congrats to Ben Gubits for making this all happen. https://lnkd.in/e8KWMPyd
