Key Learnings from Utility-Owned Residential Geothermal and Solar REV Projects
This session explores how two REV demonstration projects, the Fruit Belt Neighborhood Solar project and the Long Island Geothermal project, each used a unique approach to bring renewable energy within financial reach of LMI and fixed income customers.
Net Zero Retrofit of a Brooklyn Townhouse
Join us as we delve into a holistic presentation of a deep energy retrofit of a Brooklyn townhouse. This session will explore how the project team planned and executed a retrofit to meet a net-zero energy target, improve thermal comfort and air quality, protect the building from moisture, meet historic guidelines, and stay within a realistic budget – all while keeping the building occupied.
Hybrid Distributed Energy Resources (DER)
This panel will explore current use cases for distributed energy resource (DER) technologies such as PV, CHP, and energy storage. We will walk through modeling considerations for each of the technologies (primarily CHP and energy storage) and a few hybrid configurations, focusing on practical, financial, and technical considerations.
Solar Soars Above & Beyond the Rooftop
There has never been a better time for architects, designers, project managers and property owners to get creative about how to integrate solar into multi-family and commercial buildings with large energy requirements. Raising the solar PV panels above the roof allows for more kilowatts while creating intriguing canopied spaces (i.e., recreational areas, roof gardens and green roofs) with both indoor and outdoor benefits.
