Description:
The California Energy Commission has set a precedence for decarbonization through the 2022 Title 24, Part 6 Energy Code. To reach higher energy efficiency standards, California is promoting all-electric new homes, expanding solar and storage standards, encouraging heat pump installations, implementing new building segments, and more!
In this Forum, participants will have the opportunity to learn how industry groups and experts are preparing for the changes ahead for commercial, residential, and multifamily buildings and developing their own sets of codes. Join us and discover how the new energy code will influence your upcoming projects.
This event will be hosted in-person at the Museum of Ventura County (100 E Main St, Ventura, CA 93001). Event speakers and presentations will be announced shortly!
Refreshments and a full lunch will be served.
