How Do We Do It?

Energy Efficiency and Electrification – A Simple Guide

One of the best ways to fight climate change is to electrify almost everything and to do it as fast as we can. A report this year by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change finds we need to stop using fossil fuels to have any impact on greenhouse gas emissions. And it has to happen now, as in before 2025, which is only two years away. According to their findings, rapid, widespread electrification is a key way to get there.

Building Code Changes and the New Zero Carbon Step Code

As of May 1st, the BC Step Code became mandatory across the province. All new residential and multi-family buildings (Part 9 buildings) must now meet a minimum of Step 3. The province has also introduced the Zero Carbon Step Code, which allows municipalities to limit operational carbon from new buildings.
