BCC Virtual Lecture Series: Electrification Mythbusters

To fully decarbonize healthcare facilities, we know electrification is a substantial part of the solution. Yet, the perceived barriers to implement electrification are many:
• It’s impossible to electrify hospitals.
• The grid can’t handle it.
• We’ll triple our energy costs; it’s just not feasible.
• Clients will never support it.
• The grid is dirty, so electrification will make things worse.
• Electrification will make it difficult to design beautiful, healing spaces.
In this interactive session, we’ll hear two rapid fire presentations (an architect and an engineer) explore the myths and truths around healthcare electrification, and we’ll see how the decarb:Healthcare Guidebook can help you make decarbonization a reality.
