Free Webinar: Building Electrification - Lessons from the Field (2 Part Series), November 18-19, 9 am to 1 pm PT
Event Description
California is going through one of its most seismic shifts in building energy policy and design. The move towards full decarbonization of the building stock has started, and the policy, technical and financial implications are being developed under our feet. PG&E will share how heat pumps and other forms of electric heating can displace our long-time carbon sources of heat. These systems are already available, and many are cost effective today. Come discuss this shift and how it will impact your building or construction project with one of the industry's leading experts.
This seminar will include details of how heat pump systems work and how to design residential and commercial buildings to take advantage of currently available heat pump systems. PG&E will include case studies of heat pump systems and how they can fit into low-energy buildings. PG&E will also cover how to recognise opportunities for the application of heat pump systems.
