What you’ll learn

California has 9 million single-family homes, 3.1 million multi-family dwellings, and 600,000 commercial buildings. Most of them could be much more energy efficient. How do we accelerate implementation of deep energy efficiency retrofits that yield cost savings, environmental benefits, and resilience?

This webinar will explore innovative tools and solutions for the residential and commercial sectors:

• Green lease principles and language that help building owners and tenants share the benefits and costs of energy efficiency upgrades
• The financial case for building management systems
• Incentive packages for energy efficiency measures in areas hit by recent Sonoma County fires
• Energiesprong whole-building energy efficiency retrofits from the Netherlands that four communities in the U.S. are planning to implement
