FREEJoin us to learn about D.C.’s Department of Energy and Environment’s new Building Energy Performance Standards that were set on January 1, 2021. We’ll discuss the structure of the legislation, how buildings are evaluated, and how buildings that do not meet the standard will need to comply. We’ll also discuss what this means for the lighting industry and how IES members can respond.
