SUMMARY:Buildings Hub Live: Home Electrification Rebate Programs
DESCRIPTION:Atlas Public Policy is hosting its tenth episode of “Buildings Hub Live\,” where we spotlight the changemakers and technologies leading the charge to electrify our built environment. Join us Tuesday\, October 24 at 1 pm EST for a discussion on the federal home electrification rebates as we chat with Karen Zelmar from the U.S. Department of Energy. \nThe Inflation Reduction Act appropriated billions to electrify buildings\, with a particular focus on low-income communities. This critical injection of funding will support efficiency gains for residential buildings\, across all demographics: single and multifamily homes\, mobile homes\, and renters in an all-of-the-above historic effort. \nWhat can we expect from this program? What is expected and required of states in the funding process\, and how is funding disbursed? How does the average consumer apply to and take advantage of this program? RSVP today to find out!

SUMMARY:Buildings Hub Live: Workforce Development and Contractor Training
DESCRIPTION:Atlas Public Policy is excited to host our tenth episode of “Buildings Hub Live\,” where we spotlight the changemakers and technologies leading the charge to electrify our built environment. Join us on Tuesday\, September 19 at 1:00 PM ET as we sit down with Mary MacPherson from the Department of Energy\, Harley Stokes from the BlueGreen Alliance\, and John Doherty from the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades\, for a discussion on workforce development and contractor training in building decarbonization. \nDeveloping a skilled\, qualified workforce is essential to scaling building electrification around the country. Contractors serve as the key interlocuters with potential adopters as they decide what to install and provide important information on available technologies\, incentives\, benefits\, and costs. But do we currently have the workforce necessary to achieve our building decarbonization goals\, and if not\, what programs and initiatives exist to change that? RSVP today to find out!

SUMMARY:Buildings Hub Live: Building Decarbonization in the Midwest
DESCRIPTION:As of 2020\, only 20 percent of households in the Midwest used electricity for primary space heating\, and it is the region most dependent on piped gas and propane for home heating. Likewise\, only 14 percent of regional households are all-electric\, and just about 5 percent of homes report having a primary heat pump.  \nWhat opportunities exist to decarbonize and electrify the Midwest and facilitate efficiency gains across the region. Which states are leading the charge to electrify the built environment\, and what should we expect from policymakers across region going forward? How might the injection of federal climate funding turn the tide and move the needle on Midwest electrification? Join Atlas Policy Analyst Zack Strauss\, Molly Graham from the Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance\, and Dr. Missy Stults from the City of Ann Arbor\, Michigan to find out!

SUMMARY:Buildings Hub Live: The Future of the Electric Kitchen
DESCRIPTION:Buildings Hub Live spotlights the changemakers and technologies leading the charge to electrify the built environment. Join Atlas Public Policy for Episode 2 on Wednesday\, August 31 at 2 PM EST. We have the pleasure of hosting Noah Cordoba\, Program Coordinator for Kitchen Electrification at the Building Decarbonization Coalition\, and Ram Narayanamurthy\, Program Manager with the Emerging Technologies Office at the U.S. Department of Energy\, to discuss the the future of the electric kitchen and the transition to induction cooktops. \nWhile many home and commercial chefs believe gas stoves to be superior than their electric counterparts\, that perception will need to change as the United States transitions to all-electric buildings. Traditional electric cooking\, either coil tops or ceramic glassware\, represent the vast majority of electric cooking appliances across U.S. households. However\, a safer\, higher-performing\, more efficient option\, induction cooking\, is emerging as the future of the electric kitchen. Induction makes use of electromagnetism to heat iron/steel pots and pans\, which allows the cooking surface to remain cool to the touch even when fully engaged. Induction stoves can boil water faster than any alternative\, including gas\, and they generate zero indoor air pollution and pose zero fire risks. With the right policy support and increased awareness\, it’s only a matter of time before induction cooking comes to a kitchen near you.

SUMMARY:Buildings Hub Live: Decarbonizing Buildings with Geothermal Heat Pumps
DESCRIPTION:Atlas Public Policy is excited to launch our new podcast series “Buildings Hub Live” where we spotlight the changemakers and technologies leading the charge to electrify our built environment. Join us for our inaugural session on Tuesday\, July 12 at 3 PM EST where we’ll drill down with Kathy Hannun\, President & Founder of Dandelion Energy\, and Alexis McKittrick\, Program Manager with the Geothermal Technologies Office at the US Department of Energy\, to discuss the role for geothermal heat pumps in decarbonizing the US buildings stock. \nSpace heating\, air conditioning\, and water heating are responsible for around 70 percent of US household energy consumption\, and buildings generate nearly 15 percent of total US carbon emissions. According to the US Department of Energy\, geothermal heat pumps are the most energy-efficient\, cost-effective\, and environmentally friendly option for home heating and cooling. Under the right conditions\, geothermal heat pumps can replace traditional air conditioning units\, boilers\, furnaces\, and water heaters\, provide substantial cost savings to homeowners\, and reduce household emissions and carbon monoxide risks. Drawing upon the near-constant temperature (~50°) of the shallow subsurface\, geothermal heat pumps channel subterranean heat into homes during the winter\, and pull heat from buildings and inject it into the ground in the summer.
