iPHA webinar: Project Spotlight: Vancouver Passivhaus policy and the Fire Hall 17

Date: 8 May 2024	Time: 17:00 BST
Location: Online	Cost: PHT members: Free, Non-members: 30 EUR

This Project Spotlight will highlight Fire Hall 17, an active fire station that was built and certified to the Passivhaus standard. Because of the unique requirements a fire station has for the building that houses the equipment and staff, the building performance Expert Elise Woestyn is able to give insights into how the project was realized and how the planning team and builders overcame the challenges in the process. Being such a unique and interesting building typology, it also provides an example to be replicated in other countries.

The second speaker, Chris Higgins, representing the city government of Vancouver, will present the policy initiatives the city has in place to promote the uptake of highly energy-efficient buildings. Incentives are essential in freeing up the resources to make sure that the built environment becomes more energy efficient and reduce carbon emissions connected to the operational energy in the process.

By attending this 90-minute webinar, Certified Passivhaus Designers & Tradespeople can collect   2 PHI credit points
