California's ambitious Senate Bill (SB) 100 sets a bold target: achieving a 100% clean energy system by 2045. This mandate isn't just about policy—it's about transforming how we power our cities, neighborhoods, and buildings. District energy systems, historically used for university campuses, hospitals, and business districts, are now poised to play a crucial role in this energy revolution.
Join us for a discussion that dives into cutting-edge technologies, evolving environmental challenges, and forward-thinking legislation shaping the future of energy. We’ll explore how district energy can dramatically enhance the performance of both new and existing buildings, slashing energy costs while boosting efficiency.
Whether you’re an energy enthusiast or simply curious about how cities are evolving to meet climate goals, this event will unpack the financial, technical, and regulatory hurdles that come with adopting district energy systems. Don’t miss this chance to see how we can collectively shape a more sustainable, cost-effective, and resilient urban future.
