Event Description
Here’s an opportunity to visit a green building project in person, to learn more about the process and see the implementation of energy efficiency and building electrification in practice. As we tour an active construction site, the builder will provide first-hand information on implementation, lessons learned and best practices. Project location in Santa Barbara will be provided to registered participants.
