Details
In December, D.C.'s City Council voted in favor of the DC Omnibus Amendment Act of 2018, which establishes a 100% renewable energy target by 2032, with a 10% solar energy carve-out by 2041. Not only will these efforts keep the District along a green path, but it will also provide 15,000 jobs, according to Solar Power World.
While D.C. has made a concerted effort to convert to solar energy, how can its major developers also get involved in going green?
Join Bisnow for our first ever Greater DC Solar and Sustainability event, as today's top developers, thinkers, and policy-makers come together to break down why developers should invest in solar, as well as the various ways solar can make a difference to our local community. It's a Bisnow event you don't want to miss!
What You'll Learn?
1. What is the DC Omnibus Amendment Act, and how can it impact local development?
2. How can going solar positively impact affordable housing in the DC area?
3. Which developers are going green - and why?
4. Aside from solar panels, how can the design of a building be more eco-friendly?
5. Could going green impact future development trends? And if so, how?
