SUMMARY:Electrify Efficiently: Electrification Opportunities for Solar Installers (Part 1 of 4)
DESCRIPTION:California’s push for building electrification is quickly driving major changes in the residential energy sphere. Solar contractors\, designers\, and affiliated trades have the opportunity to capture additional market share by offering or referring gas-to-electric appliance services. This is especially important in light of recent Net Energy Metering (NEM) policy changes. Solar\, batteries\, and home appliance electrification offer a perfect match for getting customers to Zero Net Energy or at least minimizing operational costs. \nIn this session\, Electrify My Home will introduce basics of heat pumps as well as highlighting the business opportunities for solar professionals to add new services to their repertoire or to at least speak to these offerings with more confidence. \nAgenda: \n\nIntroduction and safety message\nElectrification paired with solar PV\nCA clean energy transition\nHighly efficient electric appliances\nGrowth opportunities for solar installers and companies\nQ&A\n\nThe objective of this course is that at the conclusion\, participants will be able to: \n\nExplain why electrification of home appliances is a good pairing with solar installations\nList the date when most natural gas furnaces will no longer be available for sale in\nCalifornia\nName one way electrification can possibly help with the duck curve\nSummarize importance of Electrify My Home’s approach to ‘good electrification’ and ‘install small’

SUMMARY:Electrify Efficiently: Electrification Opportunities for General Contractors & Architects (Part 2 of 4)
DESCRIPTION:Electrification is now the leading option for new buildings and major retrofit projects in California. 70+ municipalities have policies to phase out gas appliances and the state aims to have six million heat pumps installed by 2030. This will require a major paradigm shift in the way builders\, architects\, and related professionals approach the market. It also presents a giant opportunity to frame yourself or your business as an electrification expert. \nIn this session\, Electrify My Home will discuss this transition and the related business opportunity for specifying and installing well-designed all-electric buildings. \nAgenda: \n\nIntroduction and safety message\nElectrification in California and PG&E service territory\nMarket opportunities for electrification-focused architects and general contractors\nWhole-home electrification planning for success\nElectrification and importance of HVAC and duct design\, install\, and commissioning\nQ&A\n\nThe objective of this course is that at the conclusion\, participants will be able to: \n\nSummarize Electrify My Home’s approach to ‘good electrification’\nExplain the importance of comprehensive electrification planning\nList one reason why commissioning is important for HVAC systems\nDescribe the benefit of keeping ductwork within the building enclosure
