In the wake of increasingly and impactful severe weather events, the true price of maintaining business as usual has become apparent.

The primary focus will be on facilitating a seamless and cost-effective transition for builders, with particular focus on electrical systems and codes. The session aims to showcase practical strategies for right-sizing systems to meet evolving demands. The session will also spotlight specific examples of best practices, helping builders and trades navigate the path toward a sustainable, resilient and healthy future.
