Campus decarbonization requires flexible and adaptable approaches at all scales. Determining the appropriate mix of action plans helps campuses prepare for an increasing number of existing building performance and carbon reduction policies. The University of Minnesota's (U of M) multi-campus system, one of the largest in the U.S., is planning and taking actions to become net zero. This unconventional approach addresses decarbonization across regional climates, campus-systems, and building scales. In this session, we'll provide transferrable decarbonization planning processes, best practices, and lessons learned from actions across geographical regions, diverse campus-wide energy systems, and existing facilities net zero strategies.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Determine appropriate campus specific project teams, stakeholders, and planning processes to define campuswide and individual building decarbonization.
2. Choose outcomes-based plans with flexible and adaptable actions that foster cultural changes and build buy-in.
3. Assess existing and forthcoming state, county, or city decarbonization policies and regulations and their impact on campus decarbonization plans.
4. Discuss how to build a prototype predesign decarbonization process for existing facilities by collaborating with internal stakeholders and external design partners.
