Workshop: A Technical Deep Dive into ZNE School Retrofits

The Workshop: Lessons from ZNE School Retrofits will take place on May 25th in San Jose, US. Learn how existing K-12 school and community college buildings in California are being transformed to achieve zero net energy (ZNE) performance. More than ten new projects are currently underway through a unique investor-owned utility pilot program called the Proposition 39 ZNE Schools Pilot Program. These real-world examples offer critical insight into the costs, design, and construction approaches, and operational needs to successfully achieve ZNE in schools through whole building retrofits.

The interactive workshop will feature the experiences of school officials and design teams working on these groundbreaking projects to help share the lessons learned and expand knowledge of the opportunities and challenges to ZNE school retrofit design and operations.
