By Building Decarbonization Clubhouse

Overview

Explore how public-private innovation can close climate policy gaps, boost compliance, and accelerate the clean energy transition.

As gas furnaces are phased out, companies like Gradient and Venaera—both part of USGBC’s Net Zero Accelerator cohort—are pioneering easy-to-install, energy-efficient heat pumps that make building retrofits more feasible than ever. Join us for a lively discussion on how public and private leaders are closing policy gaps, supporting compliance, and accelerating the clean energy transition.
