Why Attend Retrofitting for Energy Efficiency?

Retrofitting and Re-building for Climate Resilience

Retrofitting for Energy Efficiency Brisbane has been specifically developed to align with the challenges and aims of the City of Brisbane. Attendees will learn how to best achieve real value for money in your building retrofit. Listen to case studies from industry leaders across the value chain – Uncover emerging technologies, best practice scheduling and retrofit management and most importantly – how to get the most bang for your buck!

In urban areas, building stock accounts for over half the carbon emissions of city and it is essential if we are serious about carbon reduction to act fast and strategically to improve the situation. The most obvious solution to increase energy efficiency is to retrofit our existing buildings and implement renewable energy technologies.

At the retrofitting conference, you will hear strategic and practical advice from Australia’s leading property owners, property developers, architects, and consulting engineers on:

• What funding your building retrofit is eligible for
• Which technologies will quickly improve your NABERS and Green Star Rating
• How best to communicate with tenants, pre, during and post retrofit
• Identifying the best technologies to invest in to achieve the most bang for your buck
• Future trends in retrofitting, including a look at distributed power, shared refrigerant cycle loops and the potential for combining electrical vehicle infrastructure within your building retrofit

Brisbane and the wider regions have recently had a barrage of natural disasters and the impact of climate change is now meaning that we have to consider the design of our buildings. The unfortunate events of the past year are providing the perfect opportunity to incorporate next generation energy efficient solutions into the existing building stock. Hon Tom Roper, President of ASBEC will be on hand to offer key insight into how best to retrofit our buildings for changing climates.
