Workshop: ZNE for Local Governments

June 13, 2017 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm UTC+0

The Workshop: ZNE for Local Governments will take place on June 13th in Fresno, California, US. Local governments in California are leading the United States with sustainability and energy policies driving ZNE requirements. Learn about the work of these innovative cities, connect and share information with peers, hear what it takes to achieve low-energy buildings, and gain tools to help advance your ZNE policies, programs and projects locally.

The four-hour workshop is designed to give local government staff the information, tools, and confidence to create and drive progress toward zero net energy goals. Case studies show how cities can be leaders within their own public building portfolios by creating a clear code and policy roadmap, and by transforming the market through public awareness. We will review how to achieve climate goals through ZNE pilot projects, deep energy retrofits starting with municipal building benchmarking and portfolio analysis, ZNE codes, financial incentives, ZNE recognition, and other tactics. In addition to sharing examples of successful plans and ZNE-ready policies, small working groups will develop their own ideas utilizing training materials. This pre-conference workshop will be held in conjunction with the Statewide Energy Efficiency Forum.
