Getting to Zero: Financing & Regulations for Net Zero
The last session of a four-part comprehensive educational series, Getting to Zero: Financing & Regulations for Net Zero delves into the next target of the 2030 Challenge—70% reduction—and beyond. Participants will explore both the technical skills and cross-disciplinary approaches essential for the planning, design, regulations and financing, and operations of net zero energy buildings.
Session 4 will explore the value of high-efficiency buildings, the role of the lenders and appraisers in net zero buildings, and the dependability of the return on energy efficiency and renewable energy investments. This session will also include the financing and regulation changes needed in ACE industries, including cost-effectiveness, new construction vs. upgrade of existing building stock, profitability for developers and affordability for institutions, carbon taxes, and incentives versus codes.
