Show host Jeff Nichols speaks with Ash Awad, President and Chief Market Officer at McKinstry, and a longtime leader at the intersection of buildings, energy systems, and climate innovation. Drawing on more than 30 years of experience, Ash shares his thoughts on how the built environment must fundamentally change over the next decade and challenges long-held assumptions about buildings and utilities.
Ash paints a compelling picture of a future where buildings are no longer part of the problem, but a central solution—actively supporting the grid, the environment, and human well-being. The transformation ahead is complex, but inevitable, and the time to rethink how buildings behave is now.
