Our Strategic Plan
To advance our 2050 vision, we must act now to mainstream the technologies and building strategies that make net zero possible for new and existing buildings. That’s why, through year-end, 2026, we will build on our experience promoting decarbonization, high efficiency and cutting-edge strategies in the built environment by:
Educating 4,000 building industry professionals a year to ensure there are at least 100 AEC firms who have the expertise to use net zero building methods in their work and can help us raise awareness about their value with building owners and policymakers in net zero building expertise.
Removing barriers by identifying the technical, financial and social roadblocks to net zero adoption and enabling the passage of at least two major new laws that help to overcome these barriers to allow the exponential scaling of what we know works and net zero building codes.
Demonstrating net zero methods can work everywhere by collaborating with practitioners and organizations in historically underinvested communities on programs that help advance high efficiency and decarbonization strategies. We will leverage these programs as ways to showcase the feasibility and affordability for action in 100 buildings around Illinois in schools, community centers, affordable housing, & places of worship.
