Verdical Group is partnering with Southern California Edison (SCE) to present Designing for Decarbonization, a FREE, half-day, virtual workshop that will demonstrate what it means to achieve “decarbonization” for your building projects. In this workshop, you will:
Understand the definitions of decarbonization, zero net energy (ZNE), and zero net carbon (ZNC) buildings
Learn from case studies of completed projects
Understand the design and construction process necessary to achieve high-performance buildings
Learn about important market trends around energy efficiency, green building code requirements, proven and emerging technologies, operational best practices, and real-world case studies in the built environment, as well as be given resources and tools to set building owners, operators, and end users up for success. The workshop will provide tangible next steps for how we can all contribute and shift toward a decarbonized future.
