SUMMARY:Harnessing Waste Heat Recovery & Thermal Energy Storage for Efficiency
DESCRIPTION:Waste heat recovery systems can substantially reduce energy consumption and utility bills for heating and cooling. Thermal energy storage can contribute to significant energy savings and load flexibility. Learn about real-world applications of waste heat recovery and thermal energy storage to explore whether these solutions are a good fit for your facility.

SUMMARY:Driving Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure
DESCRIPTION:As more individual and fleet vehicles become all-electric\, the demand for EV charging infrastructure will continue to increase. This webinar will address common challenges and considerations for building operators\, managers\, and owners as they look to install electric vehicle charging infrastructure at their facilities. Speakers will discuss funding opportunities\, best practices\, and lessons learned.

SUMMARY:Refrigerants' Role in the Decarbonization Movement
DESCRIPTION:Electrification efforts are driving heat pump installations and as a result the use of refrigerants is increasing. Refrigerants\, which can cause climate and environmental harm\, need to be optimized for cleanliness and performance to meet decarbonization goals. Speakers will discuss the EPA’s hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) phasedown and how this regulation will affect refrigeration and space conditioning practices in commercial buildings.

SUMMARY:Retrofit reality check: Overcome challenges and maximize opportunities in commercial and residential buildings
DESCRIPTION:We need to perform roughly 3.5 million deep energy retrofits per year to reach net zero emissions by 2050. People who deliver retrofits say it’s time for a reality check on what it takes to do the work. Facility managers are busy. Retrofits are costly and financing can be hard to find. Contractors need training that they might not always be able to access. Homes might need critical repair before an energy retrofit. Supply chain issues. Labor shortages. The list goes on. Join subject matter experts from Slipstream and IFMA for a frank conversation with experts who work in residential and commercial buildings about what it will really take to rise to the retrofit challenge.
