Multi-family residential buildings present significant opportunities for decarbonization. Although not the most energy or carbon-intensive building type overall, the 24 hour/365 day operation of these buildings, coupled with high demand for new housing, have great implications for decarbonization. This session identifies design strategies and considerations to address greenhouse gas emissions in multifamily housing that also promote equity through a community-first approach. The C4GS-ZEDlife Case Study of MountZED Ecovillage (a CEC “EPIC Challenge” winner) is presented to showcase strategies in practice for delivering affordable, equitable, climate-resilient, cost-competitive, and emissions-free residential construction.

Upon successful completion of a multiple-choice quiz, a Certificate of Completion will be available for download and can be used to verify your licensure requirements.
