This calendar is intended to serve as a resource for those interested in remote learning events related to commercial energy and facilities management. Submit your event. All submissions moderated by SBC.
The Clean Buildings Standard is one measure Washington State is taking to improve building operational efficiency. Propelling buildings to targeted energy use intensity by building type and size, all commercial buildings over 50,000 sf will need to comply by 2028 (220,000 sf by 2026), and then maintain compliance or be subject to penalties. UMC, Hargis […]
BetterBricks and IFMA invite you to learn about the latest advancements in windows, HVAC and lighting that can improve your building’s health and safety, and occupant comfort and wellness, while delivering significant savings on your energy bills. Our systems experts will present on recent research and pilot findings for a variety of technologies and solutions, […]
January 26, 2022 1-2 pm PT REGISTER Smart Buildings Center is excited to announce the next event in our ongoing series of Commercial Strategic Energy Management (CSEM) webinars, produced in partnership with Puget Sound Energy. In this interactive webinar, panelists with expertise in strategic energy management (SEM) in higher education facilities will discuss their lessons […]
Certainly, increasing building electrification (BE) is a critical step toward decarbonization of the built environment. The specific steps to achieve BE are somewhat less certain. Replacing carbon-emitting fossil fuel appliances with clean electric sources is the easy answer, but as usual there are lots of complexities in making this happen in both commercial and residential […]
