Key takeaways

- Learn why building owners and investors see value in disconnecting from the fossil-gas grid and decarbonizing buildings (and the utility grid) through electrification and dedicated, off-site renewable energy purchases.

- Learn how a distributed Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) coupled with energy recovery and passive comfort strategies can help even century-old buildings meet the AIA Architecture 2030 Challenge.

- Discover how to meet all WELL Air concepts using a mixed-mode system capable of utilizing natural ventilation, highly-efficient mechanical, and a resiliency mode when the outdoor air quality is poor.

- Explore the synergies possible by pursuing LEED v4 BD+C: Core and Shell, LEED v4 ID+C, WELL v2, RESET, ILFI Zero, and the challenging Living Building Challenge Materials Petal, including but not limited to human health, energy efficiency, and resiliency.
