    Green Buildings are the way of the future. In fact, since January 2020, California is already leading the charge by requiring all new residential buildings (defined as single and multifamily between one to three stories) to be built to Net Zero Energy (“NZE”) standards. By 2030, Net Zero Energy will be required for all new and existing commercial buildings.  


    Are you not exactly sure how NZE will impact your pipeline? Come learn from Lance Collins, Director of Sustainability at Partner Energy and President of SoCal National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA), about all things Net Zero, building sustainably in California, and accessing funds available to developers. We will explore a completed case study of a Net Zero Energy affordable housing development in Santa Monica, Greenway Meadows, with Jesús Hernández from Community Corporation of Santa Monica, to understand the feasibility of sustainable methods and lessons learned for your next project. With new codes approaching and entitlement periods taking longer, 2030 may be sooner than you expect. Educate yourself now!
