Introduction to National Energy Codes of Canada for Buildings 2020

Join us on October 16, from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM MT, to discuss how The National Energy Code for Buildings and Tiers of Performance will change the way buildings are built in Canada over the next several years.

This webinar offers an in-depth introduction to the National Energy Code of Canada for Buildings 2020 (NECB 2020), focusing on its role in promoting energy efficiency and sustainability in building practices. The discussion will provide an overview of how the NECB affects the construction and renovation of Part 9 (small) buildings now and in the future.

Designed for Indigenous Associations and Communities, Tribal Councils and Nations, this session aims to raise awareness about the benefits of adopting these codes in community infrastructure projects. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of NECB 2020, its key provisions, and how it can contribute to long-term energy savings, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and enhanced community resilience.

Join us to explore the pathways for integrating these codes into local policies and building practices, ultimately supporting the journey toward sustainable development and energy independence.
