Buildings are the leading use of energy in North America and represent a tremendous opportunity to lower our environmental footprint.  Greening existing buildings means taking steps to improve building performance, energy efficiency and the indoor environment while saving money and decreasing our impact on the planet.

 

Come listen to a panel of experienced industry professionals who will describe the process of retrofitting existing buildings.  Our speakers will provide an overview of the process, describe the current landscape for building retrofits in Ontario and provide examples from their experience on a wide variety of projects.
Topics Include: Energy Retrofits and the Marketplace in Ontario, Conservation Incentives, Solar Power and Solar Thermal Installations, Green Operations and Maintenance and LEED EBOM.

Following the lectures there will be a social event at a pub nearby where attendees are invited to join their colleagues and our speakers for a relaxed discussion and drinks.

 

Cost:

$5 for registered EGB members, $10 for non-members (taxes included)
