Canada’s building sector is evolving, creating new opportunities for existing buildings to improve performance, reduce carbon emissions, and deliver long-term value. Owners and project teams are increasingly seeking strategies and approaches that integrate technical requirements with organizational priorities and occupant needs.

Join this two-hour virtual introduction to the CAGBC Carbon Transition Planning Guide, a practical framework for planning and implementing decarbonization in existing buildings.

Review the Code Editor and Code Library work and with step-by-step instructions for creating User-defined Codes.

Come you with your questions for NRCan on this procedure.

We want to show our thanks for the continued support we receive from industry leaders across BC. To sustain and build upon the growth and reach of our network on the Island, our aim is to bring industry together and provide an opportunity to meet the Zero Emissions Innovation Centre (ZEIC)’s Building Decarbonization team. If you are interested in networking and building relationships with other green building professionals, this is the event for you!

Pop by anytime between 5:30-7:30pm and enjoy some great conversation over tasty appetizers.

Along with high-quality, high-performance housing, Naikoon Contracting is collaborating with First Nations to deploy mobile prefab factories to catalyze local economic development, workforce training and growth in modern, energy efficient, methods of construction.

This 90-minute webinar explores two multi-faceted partnerships:

The B.C. supply chain for heat pumps continues to grow to meet the constant demand for electric heat pumps. For the 12th ZEBx Tech Demo, we'll be featuring the latest and greatest from Daikin, an industry heavyweight with 16 years of local representation.

Policy makers are putting offsite manufacturers out of the plant and onto the front page with promises of solving Canada’s housing crisis and, at the same time, supporting secure jobs, value-added forestry, lower-emissions construction, and construction productivity.

While entrepreneurial tenacity forms the foundation of Canada’s offsite manufacturing sector, public policy is shaping cornerstones for its success—from local permitting innovation to senior government code reform and alternative procurement.

Are you interested in climate resilience for renewable energy projects in BC? Join the Fraser Basin Council for a free virtual learning lab learning lab focusing on climate risk and resilience for battery storage systems in BC.

The event will also feature how insurance can help protect renewable energy projects from losses due to climate events, and how proponents and communities can work with insurance companies to reduce climate risks to their projects.

The CLF BC Embodied Carbon Awards are back for their fourth year—ready to celebrate the leaders, innovators, and trailblazers driving low-carbon design across the province!

Come support your peers who are making a real impact in embodied carbon innovation, connect with a dynamic community, and most importantly—enjoy a lively evening of celebration and networking.

🏆 We will recognize excellence in six categories:

Debuting this year, the Embodied Carbon Symposium will give attendees an opportunity to earn Professional Development credits through building awareness of best practices and lessons learned, as well as feasible, replicable, and innovative solutions to advance embodied carbon reduction goals.

The program will include a presentation on the state of the landscape of embodied carbon and panel discussions and presentations with previous CLF BC Embodied Carbon Awards winners. Participants will engage in an interactive workshop and gain actionable insights to power their next projects.

Local governments are on the frontlines in managing housing and construction pressures, climate impacts, and economic stress. 

Mass timber is an offsite-manufactured, low-carbon building technology that can reduce construction-related community impacts and timelines while supporting value-added B.C. forestry, manufacturing, and construction sectors.  

Innovations in building permitting and land use policy and zoning can help local governments unlock mass timber’s benefits for diverse communities from metropolitan areas to resource-based towns.
