  • Building Decarbonization: Why Does It Matter and Where do YOU Fit in?

    View list of attendees. The New Buildings Institutes' (NBI) Building Decarbonization Code presents the building industry with an actionable tool to leverage buildings in meeting the climate objectives of cities and states. We will review this tool, present its place within a spectrum of tools, policies, and funding opportunities related to building decarbonization and discuss concerns and opportunities of decarbonization from an equity perspective. Presented in partnership with: American Institute of Architects (AIA) St. Louis' Committee on the Environment (COTE®), ASHRAE St. Louis (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers), International Sustainable Institute for Laboratories St. Louis (I2SL) and Missouri Gateway Green Building Council.  Learn what tools are available and how you can implement solutions, what is happening around the country, and what the future brings when it comes to building decarbonization.

  • Evening Educational Program: Net Zero Building Showcase

    Net Zero Building Showcase featuring three projects: You Work to Solve the Problems You Created - meeting campus net zero goals with a paradigm shift in building design. In the traditional approach to building design, the design solution creates other problems and creates a chain reaction of resource hungry solutions. Focusing on a paradigm shift from this traditional approach, James Moler, Mechanical Engineering Specialist and Kyle Nottmeier, Sr. Design Architect of Jacobs will provide a small aspect of the building design shift needed and process that went into their recent design of an international net zero technology campus. Presenting their insight on the balance of Quality, Quantity, and Budget; how they defined the difference between resources and limited resources, and how they used this insight to constrain and form the design in order to meet the net zero goals of this technology campus My Journey to a Net Zero Single Family Home - continuing the conversation of building decarbonization. Returning to the podium this month is Greg Carl, a panelist from August's evening program, Building Decarbonization: Why Does It Matter and Where do YOU Fit In? Greg Carl will be discussing the net zero resources and methods used building his residential home in Olivette, Missouri and the obstacles to implementation. Presenting energy programs and tax credits applicable to achieve net zero locally and the design, build, and implementation solutions from… Continue Reading Evening Educational Program: Net Zero Building Showcase
