MCE2 is designed for Canada’s home building industry. It quantifies the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with specific low-rise, residential building designs by providing two important estimates:
- The GHG emissions associated with manufacturing required building materials
- The estimated GHG emissions from operating the home (calculated using results from a HOT2000 energy model)
Together, these results predict the overall GHG impact on the climate of a new home or renovation (its carbon use intensity, or CUI) and provides industry with insights for reduction opportunities.
This free training is offered as part of Alberta Ecotrust Foundation’s “Getting to Zero Research Program”.
In order to be eligible for this training, the majority of your work must take place in Alberta.
MCE2 Training Dates:
- Tuesday, April 13, 1:00 PM – 3:30 PM MST & Wednesday, April 14, 1:00 PM – 3:30 MST
*Please note you will need to attend and complete both sessions on April 13th & April 14th. You will receive a Zoom invitation link ahead of the training on April 13th, once you have been approved to take the training.
