All-Electric Buildings: Stories from the Field
March 10th @ 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm

All-electric construction has gone mainstream in just a few years. With industry-wide experience, comes new lessons and adaptations. We’ll review what’s been easy and what strategies still require additional attention from designers, builders, and manufacturers. Come with your questions, and your lessons learned. Learning objectives:

• Be able to identify which all-electric strategies have broad acceptance and why
•  Identify which all-electric components have seen push-back, and learn new strategies to overcome barriers
• Understand lessons learned from design and plan review to construction in the field to streamline all-electric projects
•  Differentiate strategies between new construction and remodels, and how to prioritize phasing.
