E le c trifying Our Building s California Commercial Building Energy Use by Fuel Type ALISO CANYON GAS LEAK
Learning Objectives 1. The benefits of electrification: why policymakers and designers are moving towards electrifying new and existing commercial buildings 2. What technologies will be used to electrify commercial buildings? 3. How right timing and integrated solutions can enable capital and energy cost-effective electrification. 4. How to choose the right electrification technology based on existing building systems
Session Description: Learn the process of electrification for new and existing commercial buildings. Information about recent technologies, including HVAC, hot water, and the whole systems approach, will be presented. Learn more about the various incentives and clean energy programs available.
Agenda: • Why? Climate, Efficiency Safety, Health • When? - It’s Time to Flip the Switch • What? – End Use Breakdown • How? – How to Electrify Commercial Buildings
