Electrifying Space Heating in Existing Commercial Buildings

In this webinar, ACEEE presented results from its new study investigating the electrification of commercial buildings HVAC retrofits, including energy and carbon savings, cost-effectiveness, and policy recommendations. An engineer from Trane joined the webinar to provide a manufacturer’s perspective on the growing use of heat pumps and also some of the challenges. In addition, a UC Davis energy manager described how his team is approaching electrifying buildings on campus through the use of heat pumps, energy storage, and geoexchange.
