Wondering how to get your building envelope to Zero Energy Ready? The answer could be easier than you think with the help of DuPont. Join us at IBS 2024 to talk with Juan Ventura or any of the DuPont team greeting builders.

HIGH-efficiency DOAS systems with an HIGH-efficiency ERV at the heart of it. Comfort summer or winter (can add a heat pump under extreme cold conditions), excellent air exchange for healthy IAQ, and great reductions on energy bills and emissions!

Here's a preview of the presentation on Virginia Clean Cities webinar 'Idle Reduction Strategies' for you, Thursday, June 20, 3:00pm ET. In my case, it's a collection of perspective from some of the leading fleet management subject matter experts on the topic of idle management in the U.S. The foundational lesson? It sounds obvious: if the funders of your idle reduction strategy aren't enthusiastic or on board, your strategy will likely get zero MPG and go nowhere. With this insight, get it funded and get it done. Hope you can join us on June 20th at 3:00pm ET.

🌐 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦! 📰 The White House has just released the first-ever federal definition of zero-emissions buildings - a groundbreaking move that promises to reshape the industry. 🌟 This new guide outlines a clear baseline for top-tier building energy performance, providing much-needed clarity on what it means to be a true zero-emissions structure. 🏆 No more ambiguity - the Biden administration has set the bar high, and it's up to us to rise to the challenge. Our own CEO, Lindsay Baker, was asked to weigh in on this trailblazing news. "We’ve been encouraging and certifying carbon performance in buildings for many years, and so we commend the federal government for stepping up to help develop these necessary structures to rapidly decarbonize our building industry.” 🌳🏗️ Join the conversation and share your thoughts on this exciting development! 🌍 Read more at https://lnkd.in/d-QvJCZX. #ZeroEmissionsBuildings #ClimateAction #LivingFutureInstitute #BidenAdministration #GreenBuildings #LivingFuture

Defining #ZeroEmissions in #Buildings: #Biden's Vision Key Takeaways: - Establishing a standard industry definition for zero-emission buildings. - Creating a guide for top-tier building energy performance in the US. - Sending a strong market signal about the future of sustainable building. Further Insights 1. New Definition: The Biden administration introduces a federal definition of zero-emissions buildings, aiming to standardize the term across the industry. 2. Market Signal: Though the guidance has no legal weight, it is intended as a robust market signal to encourage advancements in sustainable building practices. 3. Education and Training: The initiative is demonstrated through practical projects, like Requity's training program in West Baltimore, showing direct community and educational benefits. Closing Thoughts: As the definition of zero-emission buildings gains clarity, will this spark a new era in sustainable construction practices and how will the market react to these standards?

Interesting read on the importance of data sharing (#2) and behavior change (#4) in meeting net-zero targets. This is something ility is specifically focused on in our approach to the owner-tenant relationship: https://lnkd.in/eAxe45DK cc: Buildings Magazine / Janelle Penny
