Executive Summary

Net zero carbon targets and new pledges arising from the COP26 conference are bringing decarbonization to the fore of real estate strategies. Energy, facilities and real estate directors are on the front line for operationalizing these strategies and driving action at the building level. 

This webinar brings together the latest Verdantix research to analyse eight strategic options for achieving net zero buildings. The webinar will set out why making buildings energy efficient and grid-interactive are critical stepping stones to going net zero.
