Buildings are a major source of carbon emissions. Campuses need solutions for meeting rigorous energy goals while capturing programmatic needs, improving occupant health and wellness, and meeting bottom-line financial requirements. What are the key steps in planning and delivering a fully-electric, highly-sustainable student residence, dining, and services building? Using the Harmony Commons at the University of Toronto-Scarborough (UTSC) as a case study, we'll share planning perspectives from administrative, financial, design, and construction standpoints. This session will raise awareness of available solutions for planning and building an all-electric building and provide a pathway for success through integrated planning.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Inspire organizational and administrative buy-in for building better towards a net-zero future.
2. Share the vital steps that are required to plan and deliver an all-electric, energy-efficient, mixed-use campus building.
3. Discuss how to plan directly with your institution's sustainability department to incorporate new campus standards for future projects.
4. Push local contractors and suppliers away from 'business as usual' and insist on building better, healthier, more sustainable buildings.
