We need to perform roughly 3.5 million deep energy retrofits per year to reach net zero emissions by 2050. People who deliver retrofits say it’s time for a reality check on what it takes to do the work. Facility managers are busy. Retrofits are costly and financing can be hard to find. Contractors need training that they might not always be able to access. Homes might need critical repair before an energy retrofit. Supply chain issues. Labor shortages. The list goes on.
Join subject matter experts from Slipstream and IFMA for a frank conversation with experts who work in residential and commercial buildings about what it will really take to rise to the retrofit challenge.
