Events
On April 17 and 18, 2024, we brought together industry leaders, construction professionals, civil society representatives, government officials, Indigenous leaders, and others. The National Building Decarbonization Forum: Pathways to Electrification will explore the most promising pathways to achieve net zero through building electrification.
Through engagement, information exchange, and in-depth discussions, we will unpack the challenges and opportunities, and identify the immediate actions needed to accelerate the transition to net-zero buildings. Join us as we convene the lead actors driving market transformation.
