SUMMARY:Hot Water Design for Heat Pump Water Heaters
DESCRIPTION:The California Energy Commission is currently pursuing many programs which are aimed at decarbonizing our energy infrastructure including all-electric cooking\, space heating and water heating. The commercial foodservice industry has started to adopt efficient electric cooking equipment as the first step towards all-electric\, zero net carbon kitchens. This class explains how the foodservice industry can take the most important next step towards zero carbon by addressing one of the biggest barriers: How to replace the traditional gas-fired hot water systems with electric heat pump water heaters. Learn how heat-recovery dishmachines\, effective plumbing design\, and decentralized\, point-of-use water heating are necessary to make heat pump water heaters perform effectively in the demanding commercial kitchen environment.

SUMMARY:ACEEE: Behavior\, Energy & Climate Change (BECC) Conference
DESCRIPTION:BECC is the premier conference focused on understanding human behavior and decision-making and using that knowledge to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future. Since 2007\, BECC has fostered understanding individual and organizational behavior and decision-making related to energy usage\, greenhouse gas emissions\, climate change\, and sustainability. BECC is more than just a conference—it is a fun social community that is passionate and excited about mitigating climate change. The event\, co-convened by ACEEE\, prides itself on finding innovative ways to encourage socializing and networking while providing the highest-quality presentations.

SUMMARY:Course: HOME ASSESSMENTS FOR DECARBONIZATION – CLASS 6
DESCRIPTION:This is class 6 of 6 in 3C-REN’s High Performance Fundamentals Certificate series. Earn a 3C-REN certificate of completion after finishing the series and passing short quizzes at the end of each class. \nThis class is designed to prepare building practitioners\, who have basic to advanced knowledge of residential building\, to assist homeowners on their pathways to electrification. We will cover all phases of the assessment process from understanding homeowner goals and setting expectations\, through a methodical investigation and documentation of existing conditions and potential issues\, to proposing and prioritizing solutions and offering implementation resources. A homeowner questionnaire template\, existing condition form\, and annotated electrification resource directory will be included as class handouts. \nLearning Objectives \nAfter attending this class\, participants will be able to: \n\nEstimate a homeowner’s anticipated future electrical loads\nIdentify equipment strategies to help minimize electric load additions\nGuide homeowners in developing a comprehensive\, prioritized electrification plan\nDirect homeowners to credible\, informative electrification resources\n\n1.5 AIA|HSW LU’s available for this course \nInstructors: \n\nAnn Edminster\, Design AVEnues LLC
