General Session Panel

Discussion:
Humanity & Home Performance: Exploring the Interdependence of Equity, Energy, and Economics

The concept of "humanity and home performance" refers to the intersection of Social Science and Building Science and their collective impact on socioeconomics and the disproportionate energy burden. By recognizing and addressing the interdependencies between these factors, practitioners and advocates can systematize solutions that promote inclusive economic growth and employment opportunities while reducing energy poverty and enhancing overall societal well-being. During this fireside chat industry leaders will delve into the importance of an equitable evolution of the Home Performance Industry.
