The Cost of Zero Carbon Development. The ZEBx Decarb Lunch, May 27, 2024
Description
Season 4, Episode 5
Recorded on May 27, 2024
Overview
To help bring the findings from the “Navigating Development with the Zero Carbon Step Code” case study to life, we hosted this Decarb Lunch webinar.
The presentation covered the following topics:
- Suitable combinations of mechanical and enclosure systems to meet energy and emissions requirements.
- Impact of changing codes on project capital costs.
- Effects of varying design scenarios on operational costs.
- How to quickly assess potential design changes and cost implications for reworking ongoing projects to meet different requirements
- Key considerations for developers in approaching net-zero energy and carbon developments.
The intention was to provide information which will better prepare developers to meet current and future policy requirements, reduce financial risks, minimize future retrofit burdens, and accelerate market transformation towards fully net-zero carbon construction.
Thanks to the financial support of BC Hydro and the City of Vancouver, this event was free of charge.
