P2S BUILDING DECARBONIZATION TASK FORCE !
At the forefront of devising new strategies to reduce building emissions , the P2S Decarbonization Task Force meets bimonthly to discuss new technologies , design approaches and best practices for decarbonizing projects . The task force comprises a broad spectrum of individuals from across the company , with a mix of mechanical engineers , electrical engineers , and plumbing engineers . Sustainability Director James Del Monaco is the task force ’ s Chair , and Chief Engineer Kent Peterson also has a prominent role . The Task Force focuses on new buildings and major renovations , upgrades , and retrofits for existing facilities .
Within the Task Force ’ s main working group , subgroups evaluate different technologies and solve various tasks . For example , one subgroup is looking at ways to utilize energy data from existing clients to validate the operational energy of current buildings . This would ensure that P2S fully understands how accurate calculations are and if they ’ re comparable across similar building types . As decarbonization efforts accelerate in California and throughout the U . S , the Task Force will operate an essential role in our firm , driving innovation for a relatively new design paradigm for an all-electric future .
