SUMMARY:Decarbonizing the Built Environment P1
DESCRIPTION:Part 1 Setting the Stage: Carbon in the Built Environment This session will take a holistic view of carbon drivers in the built environment. The first part in the series will set the stage for the next two courses\, outlining key definitions and drivers and presenting a path towards carbon neutral design. Through case studies we’ll explore holistic carbon on recent projects and areas where designers can have the most significant influence.

SUMMARY:Overcoming Roadblocks to Residential Electrification
DESCRIPTION:Globally\, the scientific community agrees that we must reduce carbon emissions to significantly reduce the impact of global warming. In the US\, buildings account for 40% of carbon emissions. In this class\, Steve Easley focuses on the top roadblocks and solutions for a timelier transition to decarbonization and electrification. For wide scale electrification to happen in a timely manner it will have to happen from the customer side of the meter. This class will address how best to make this a cost-effective reality. The challenge is the localized electrical grid capacity is in no way ready for mass electrification. There simply isn’t enough localized grid storage or grid capacity for homes\, for homes to have electric heat\, water heating\, cooking\, and vehicle charging. This class will address practical solutions. The class will focus on the design\, construction practices\, and technologies that will provide the best pathway for electrification of homes. \n

SUMMARY:Good Electrification for Solar Contractors: New Business Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:The residential energy market in California is quickly transforming towards electrification. This transformation presents an enormous business opportunity for solar contractors\, especially in light of recent NEM policy changes. Electrification of home appliances (switching from gas to electric) is a perfect pairing with clean energy generated from solar. This webinar will teach you about best practices for “Good Electrification” and highlight opportunities for solar contractors to add new services to their repertoire. It will also arm you with the information necessary to begin speaking to your customers about electrification with more confidence. Learning Objectives: Note how many heat pumps California aims to have installed by 2030 Name two reasons why right-sized inverter heat pumps are advantageous Explain why electrification of home appliances is a good pairing with solar installations Describe why helping your customers with an electrification roadmap is useful. \n
