From Regulation to Reality: The Path to Net Zero
Net-Zero Buildings | BIPV | High-Efficiency Building (HEB)
The clock is ticking toward the European Union’s ambitious targets for net-zero buildings. With significant regulatory pressure requiring all new buildings to achieve zero on-site fossil fuel emissions by 2030—and to phase out fossil fuels for heating and cooling in existing buildings by 2040—net-zero buildings are no longer optional; they are mandatory.
Beyond regulation, investor expectations are converging with the demands of a net-zero economy. As building operations contribute over 27% of global emissions, achieving net-zero buildings is essential for driving a climate-neutral future. The shift is not just a compliance necessity but a transformational market opportunity for real estate stakeholders.
The inaugural Solarplaza Summit Net Zero Buildings directly addresses this opportunity. With growing demand for sustainable, energy-positive buildings, this sector is ripe with potential. The event showcases real-world business cases focusing on ROI, cutting-edge technologies (plug-and-play, energy storage, BIPV), and exclusive networking opportunities. It’s the premier platform uniting architects, developers, investors, and energy solution providers to co-create the projects that not only meet compliance but redefine profitability and innovation.
At the heart of the conference is a simple yet critical question: How can the industry collaborate to make net-zero buildings a reality—and what will they look like? Join us to envision energy-efficient, smart, and resilient structures that will shape the future of sustainable real estate.
