SUMMARY:Renewable Energy\, Energy Storage and Resiliency
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEnjoy food\, drinks\, and great company at the last event in our High-Performance Happy Hour Series! Whether you’re a homeowner\, architect\, or simply curious about electrification\, join us to learn how renewable energy and storage are shaping the building decarbonization landscape.  \nEvent Description \nAs energy codes and interest in electrification come together\, the winning combination of renewable energy and energy storage work together to reduce pollution\, improve affordability and\, importantly\, support resiliency in emergencies that may lead to power outages. We’ll review the background and drivers of distributed energy generation and storage and review different approaches to meet a project team’s goals. \nLearning Objectives \n\nUnderstand the drivers for increasing distributed PV’s and battery storage for individual projects and neighborhoods\nDifferentiate between terms including distributed energy storage\, ‘microgrids’\, islanding\, grid-tied\, demand response and behind-the-meter / in-front-of-the-meter\nReview key design features of batteries to inform system selection and sizing\nUnderstand factors impacting upfront and long-term system costs\, including time of use and options for managing renewable energy and battery use.\n\nLearning Units \n\n1.0 AIA HSW LUs approved for this course\n1 hour of ZNCD Continuing Education units for CAB\n\nInstructor \nJennifer Rennick\, In Balance Green Consulting \nAndy Pease\, In Balance Green Consulting \n  \nThis event is held in partnership with AIA Santa Barbara. Attendance is open to all. \n \n

SUMMARY:Next Generation Passive Solar
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEnjoy food\, drinks\, and great company at the third event in our High-Performance Happy Hour Series! Whether you’re a homeowner\, architect\, or simply curious about high-performance design\, join us to dive into the next generation of passive solar design principles.  \nEvent Description \nWe all learned the principles of passive solar design in school – south facing orientation\, strategic windows\, thermal mass\, etc.\, but the old rules don’t apply in the same way. Modern buildings should still incorporate passive strategies\, including daylight and ventilation\, but they need a new spin on the implementation to account for improved insulation\, prevalence of high-performance glazing\, and efficient HVAC systems and lighting. \nLearning Objectives \n\nReview passive thermal design strategies including basic climate analysis and guidelines for orientation\, fenestration and thermal mass.\nUnderstand current science relating to the impacts of daylight and views on occupant health and learn best practices for right-sizing windows and skylights\, managing glare and selecting appropriate visible light transmittance.\nLearn strategies to develop an integrated system for ventilation\, optimizing passive systems (operable windows and skylights\, stack effect\, cross ventilation) with mechanical systems\nReview a case study to integrate passive thermal design with a high-performance envelope.\n\nLearning Units \n\n1 AIA HSW LUs approved for this course\n1 hour of ZNCD Continuing Education units for CAB\n\nInstructor \nJennifer Rennick\, In Balance Green Consulting \nAndy Pease\, In Balance Green Consulting \n  \nThis event is held in partnership with AIA Santa Barbara. Attendance is open to all. \n \n  \nInterested in attending more in-person events? Make sure to check out the last event in our High-Performance Happy Hour Series! \n\nRenewable Energy\, Energy Storage and Resiliency (10/28)

SUMMARY:All Electric ADUs
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEnjoy food\, drinks\, and great company at the first event in our High-Performance Happy Hour Series! Whether you’re a homeowner\, architect\, or simply curious about electrification\, join us to explore how all-electric ADUs are shaping the future of housing in Santa Barbara. \nEvent Description \nADUs are an important source of housing development all over California. They are especially well suited to all-electric design. This class will cover the key systems in an all-electric ADU and draw on the ADU recently built by the instructor out of Structural Insulated Panel System (SIPS)\, but other building envelopes will also be covered\, including more traditional wood-framed structures and modular ADUs. We will use energy modeling to contrast utility bills and Greenhouse Gas Emissions of mixed fuel and all-electric homes\, as well as actual data from the real-life operation of the ADU\, which is currently being monitored circuit by circuit. The financials will be prominently featured as well\, so that attendees considering building an ADU can make an informed decision and see how attractive the economics typically are. \nLearning Objectives \n\nLearn why All-Electric ADUs make sense most of the time\nUnderstand key systems in an All-Electric home and design options\nCompare utility costs and GHG emissions of mixed fuel and All-Electric ADUs\nSee how the California energy code encourages All-Electric ADUs\n\nLearning Units\n1.5 AIA HSW LUs approved for this course\n0.15 ICC CEUs approved for this course \nInstructor \nNick Brown\, Build Smart Group \n  \nThis event is held in partnership with AIA Santa Barbara. Attendance is open to all. \n \n  \nInterested in attending more in-person events?
