A Balancing Act: Leveraging Decarbonization to Create and Protect Housing Affordability

セッションの要約：Climate change and housing affordability are two primary challenges that communities and the real estate industry are facing nationally. To combat these challenges, creating new housing supply and retrofitting older, affordable housing with electrification and its infrastructure are critical.  This panel discussed the importance of coordinated, neighborhood scale decarbonization, human-centered sustainability, design practices that integrate sustainability and resilience, and finally, the historic opportunity offered by the Inflation Reduction Act to support clean energy and energy efficiency investments in multifamily housing.
