Deeper, Healthier Electrification: Passive House Retrofits

Electrifying existing buildings is a crucial step toward reducing reliance on fossil fuels, but it introduces certain challenges. These include the risk of diminished resilience in the built environment during power outages and increased costs for backup power solutions.

This presentation explores how integrating Passive House standards into building retrofits can enhance both energy efficiency and resilience. It highlights the long-term benefits of these standards, not only in improving a building’s ability to withstand power disruptions but also in boosting occupant comfort, health, and overall quality of life.

Come join us at Odell Brewing Co. in Denver on Thursday, June 19, to meet the speaker in person and make connections to other like-minded people. This form of community building will be the only way that we can transform our local economy into a new energy economy. For those of you who can’t make it in person, we will be streaming the program live on Zoom.
