Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) are one of the most widely used instruments of environmental impact for green building and yet they are also widely misunderstood.
Especially as demand for net zero energy labels, including the NGBS Green+ NET ZERO ENERGY certification, grows, more and more project teams are looking to RECs as a tool to offset energy use.
Join Heather Schrock of the Bonneville Environmental Foundation for a breakdown of what RECs actually are - not just a piece of paper - how they are used in green building, the pros and cons of various types of RECs, the difference between a REC and a carbon offset, and how you can use them in your own building projects.
All NGBS Green Partners are invited to join for this webinar.
