BERDO 2.0 was passed in October, and includes new emissions targets, new data verification requirements, and new covered buildings. If you own or manage a building that’s 20,000 square feet or more, or 15 units or more, join us to learn about what this means for you.

Reporting for Boston's Building Emissions Reduction and Disclosure Ordinance (BERDO) has changed for 2022. In this webinar, those who are new to reporting can learn how to benchmark buildings in Energy Star Portfolio Manager (ESPM), and those who have used ESPM before can learn about the new process to submit that data for BERDO. We'll also discuss how to request a reporting extension and how to complete third-party verification.

While there are a growing number of new construction all-electric multifamily buildings, there are fewer existing multifamily buildings being retrofitted with the goal of full electrification. Building Electrification Institute’s (BEI) Playbooks for the Equitable Electrification of Multifamily Buildings use example buildings to discuss important considerations for retrofitting multifamily buildings with different characteristics, including costs for new technologies, electrical service upgrades, and tenant disruption. Join Caytie Campbell-Orrock (BEI) and Robin Neri (Steven Winter Associates) to hear about the options and ask your questions.
