This month, GNFZ India hosted regional conclaves across India that brought together visionaries, industry leaders, and change makers to turn ambition into action. Watch the recap video to experience:   →Pune, which showcased the leadership of SOE Ajeenkya DY Patil University, Ajmera Realty & Infra India Ltd. and Suhana Group - India — each receiving GNFZ net zero certificates.   →Jaipur, where D2O hosted at GNFZ Net Zero Energy-certified headquarters — a venue that quite literally embodied “walking the talk.”   →Chennai, which was co-hosted with ProClime and Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, where attendees engaged in thoughtful discussions that went beyond infrastructure — tackling carbon markets, Scope 3 emissions, and academic-industry collaboration.

In recent years, the design industry has increased its efforts to reduce GHG emissions and has embraced high-performance buildings.   But often decisions to embrace climate change mitigation project solutions come down to dollars and cents. Owners have a certain bucket of resources and capital expenditure funds — they must make hard choices.   But if GHG regulations are the law, that becomes a key factor in their decision making. The organization can no longer say, “I don’t need to fund those low carbon efforts. That’s not my priority.” The law makes it a priority.   New ASHRAE standards are going to change the equation. Why? Because ASHRAE standards are largely what governing authorities base their building performance codes on.   Elizabeth Tomlinson, PE is the Senior Principal, Carbon and Climate Discipline Leader, Buildings at Stantec, and has 20 years of experience in research and building design, resiliency, commissioning, and energy auditing. Read her insights on how new ASHRAE standards tip the balance toward net zero buildings: https://lnkd.in/e-ug8n5p
