SUMMARY:Comply With Me: Ace the New Energy Code!
DESCRIPTION:Join Energy Code Ace on March 4 – 5\, 2026 at The Energy Education Center in Irwindale for two days of thought leadership\, case studies\, in-depth training opportunities\, and networking events that will help you glide through the updates to the 2025 California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24\, Part 6 or Energy Code). \nWhy Attend?\nSubject matter experts will address common questions about code compliance\, sharing hands-on solutions\, tools\, and resources to help you navigate California’s Energy Code and Appliance Efficiency Standards (Title 20). The event program will focus on code compliance and enforcement; technologies for decarbonization and electrification such as heat pumps\, solar PV & batteries\, envelope design\, and lighting; and policy\, market barriers\, code development\, and reach codes. \nEnergy Code Ace strives to make it faster and easier for each market actor responsible for compliance with the Energy Code to effectively comply and realize the full energy savings potential of the Energy Code.

SUMMARY:Net Zero Energy Buildings Now and What’s Next
DESCRIPTION:Buildings tend to be the primary energy consumer in the U.S.—and amid rising utility prices and concerns about the impacts of climate change\, efforts are being made to incorporate energy saving strategies into commercial building design\, construction\, and operation. The concept of a Net Zero Energy building\, which produces as much energy as it uses annually\, is a reality in most regions. These buildings often come with added benefits that include improved comfort and resilience. In this online event\, our panelists will discuss Net Zero Energy buildings. Presenters will clarify what these terms mean and how they compare with other classifications\, such as Net Zero Carbon or Living Buildings\, and introduce Future‑Ready building concepts. The session will feature case studies\, explore why clients made this choice\, and highlight how the current market for these buildings is evolving today.
