Building Performance Standards (BPS) have emerged as a potent new policy to improve the energy/emissions performance of buildings. However, as a policy that impacts existing buildings, they raise important questions for historic buildings. The presentation will present a new policy toolkit that addresses how to effectively integrate historic buildings and historic preservation into BPS.

Join the APT Technical Committee for Sustainable Preservation (TCSP) for this roundtable discussion on Decarbonizing the Built Environment through Heritage. In this webinar, authors who contributed to the APT Bulletin Special Issue of the same title will provide a brief overview of their article topic followed by a moderated discussion led by the TCSP. Discussion topics include reuse of existing buildings as a critical decarbonization strategy, tools and methods for quantifying embodied carbon, aligning performance standards with historic buildings, and more.
