An all-electric kitchen, specifically including induction cooking equipment, is one with no natural gas or other fossil fuel-based energy source. These kitchens reflect the goals of not only decarbonization, but health and safety for users as well. In this session, you will hear from experts in the all-electric kitchen industry on the benefits of all-electric cooking, the most effective technology in the market today, and real-life examples of project teams and clients utilizing all-electric commercial kitchens.

Although not the most energy or carbon-intensive building type overall, the 24 hour/365 day operation of these buildings, coupled with high demand for new housing, have great implications for decarbonization. Part 1 of Zero Carbon Multifamily Residential Buildings will identify various design strategies and considerations to address greenhouse gas emissions in multifamily housing and that promote equity through a community-first approach. The C4GS-ZEDlife Case Study of MountZED Ecovillage (a CEC “EPIC Challenge” winner) will be presented to showcase strategies in practice for delivering affordable, equitable, climate-resilient, cost-competitive, and emissions-free residential construction. Speakers: Ladan Ghobad, Ph.D., LEED AP BD+C | CEO, Principal, Building Performance Specialist, ENERlite Dr. M.A. Greenstein | VP of Knowledge Transfer, C4GS ZEDlife Bill Dunster, OBE | Co-founder and Environmental Architect, C4GS ZEDlife Moderator: Katie Ackerly, AIA | Principal and Sustainable Design Director, David Baker Architects

Although not the most energy or carbon-intensive building type overall, the 24 hour/365 day operation of these buildings, coupled with high demand for new housing, have great implications for decarbonization. Through three case studies (all CEC “EPIC Challenge” winners), Part 2 of Zero Carbon Multifamily Residential Buildings will explore the broader context of decarbonization in multifamily buildings, discussing how to implement and benefit from emerging technologies and walking through methods that can help achieve affordable, equitable, climate-resilient, cost-competitive, and emissions-free residential construction.
