Attend our 2016 thought leader forum
The Pembina Institute will host the Pathways to Net-Zero Buildings thought leader forum on November 28 and 29 in Vancouver.
This is not a conference. It is an opportunity for a frank conversation about what works and what does not in public policy with respect to preparing our buildings for a low carbon economy. In a roll-up-your-sleeves environment, we will test policies, clarify challenges and identify areas of consensus.
As a leader in your field, we need your input to help to shape B.C.’s and Canada’s pathways toward net-zero buildings policies. Forum participants will include representatives from all levels of government, building industry and trades professionals, utilities, research institutions and non-governmental organizations.
This two-day event will build on the discussions from last year’s forum (see summary and video), and recent policy opportunities including the City of Vancouver’s Zero Emissions Building Plan, B.C. climate plan and pan-Canadian climate framework.
This year’s key objectives are to establish consensus on the regulatory roadmap to net-zero ready new buildings in B.C., and to provide policy recommendations for a national and provincial building retrofit strategy. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to shape buildings policies for the low carbon economy.
