SUMMARY:SCDN Policy Connection: Leveraging Direct Pay for Capital Improvement Projects
DESCRIPTION:Climate action plans are a critical first step for municipalities\, but successful implementation is just as important. Energy production and investments play a key role in bringing these plans to life. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) offers significant support through clean energy tax credits\, helping to fund capital improvement projects. In fact\, for the first time in history municipalities can now take advantage of direct/elective pay\, a provision allowing municipalities to claim tax credits and receive them as cash payments to finance clean energy initiatives.  \n\n\n\nJoin Sustainable Pittsburgh for an informative session that will provide a comprehensive overview of the IRA direct and elective payment programs\, covering eligibility requirements and the steps municipalities need to take to access these funds. Speakers will highlight current capital improvement projects in the southwestern Pennsylvania region and share tools and strategies for determining project eligibility to qualify for direct pay benefits. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers: \n\n\n\n\nJillian Blanchard (she/her)\, Director of the Climate Change & Environmental Justice Program\, Lawyers for Good Government\n\n\n\nRebecca Bykoski (she/her)\, Director of Programs\, Sustainable Pittsburgh\n\n\n\nKelly McRae (she/her)\, Climate Change & Environmental Justice Program Administrator\, Lawyers for Good Government\n\n\n\nSawyer Sidelinger (they/them)\, Program Manager and Systems Administrator\, Sustainable Pittsburgh\n\n\n\nMegan Zeigler (she/her)\, CEO\, SWPA Municipal Project Hub\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccess Speaker Bios\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWho Should Attend: \n\n\n\n\nLocal Government Leaders\n\n\n\nMunicipal Managers/Planners\n\n\n\nCommunity Sustainability Practitioners\n\n\n\nLocal Government Consultants\n\n\n\nLeaders and Professionals interested in reducing carbon emissions\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:SCDN Policy Connection: Activating Carbon-Emissions Reduction Through Energy Efficiency Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Event Overview: \n\n\n\nJoin Sustainable Pittsburgh\, the Energy Efficiency Alliance\, and Franklin Energy for the SCDN Policy Connection: Activating Carbon-Emissions Reduction through Energy Efficiency Strategies webinar on Tuesday\, December 5th to learn more about how energy efficiency can benefit buildings\, transportation\, industry\, and other sectors through cost savings\, improved health\, electricity reliability\, and meaningful carbon-emissions reductions. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFeatured presentations will be given by the Energy Efficiency Alliance on resources that are available now and what can be expected in the future to support energy efficiency technologies and practices. Duquesne Light Company and Franklin Energy will provide information that small businesses and local governments can use to advance their carbon reduction goals through energy efficiency. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe program will also feature a preview of the upcoming Carbon Reduction Sprint\, a fun and friendly\, 6-month competition for organizations to compete against peers in earning points for actions that advance carbon-emissions reduction. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBackground: \n\n\n\nEnergy efficiency offers one of the most compelling opportunities to reduce carbon emissions\, yet its benefits depend on how communities\, businesses and other organizations commit to taking action now and for the long-term. Through energy efficiency\, buildings\, transportation\, industry\, and other sectors can benefit from cost savings\, improved health\, electricity reliability\, and carbon-emissions reduction potential. Opportunities to decarbonize via energy efficiency exist for schools and municipal buildings\, small businesses\, restaurants\, commercial buildings\, and more! Moreover\, Pennsylvania expects to receive at least $67 million for clean energy from resources activated by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Combined with uncapped tax incentives available from the Inflation Reduction Act for existing or new decarbonization strategies\, energy efficiency is poised to be a key component of any decarbonization strategy. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers: \n\n\n\n\nDave DefideSenior Manager of Customer ProgramsDuquesne Light Company\n\n\n\nRachel GoodgalGovernment Affairs ManagerEnergy Efficiency Alliance\n\n\n\nKelly HendersonDirector of ProgramsSustainable Pittsburgh\n\n\n\nMatt MahoneyDirector of Government AffairsSustainable Pittsburgh\n\n\n\nLiz McQuaideSenior Program ManagerFranklin Energy\n\n\n\nLeslie RhoadsSustainability CoordinatorPennsylvania Municipal League\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganizer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Tapping Opportunities in the Circular Economy
DESCRIPTION:Provided by: Sustainable Pittsburgh and CEOs for Sustainability \nThe world consumed record high levels of virgin materials in 2021\, even as reuse and recycling rates remain stagnant. In addition to polluting our air\, soil\, and waterways\, the throwaway economy deepens social inequity through low wages and environmental costs borne mostly by marginalized communities. The opportunity goes far beyond reuse\, repair\, and recycling. By transitioning to a circular economy\, manufacturers and communities can build upstream\, regenerative solutions that engage the human-powered efforts that often already exist and bring new innovations to scale.  \nJoin us as presenters describe how they are creating circular economies that provide dignified work\, turn waste into feedstocks\, reduce greenhouse gas emissions\, bolster the supply chain\, stimulate innovation\, and benefit the bottom line. Learn about circular economy opportunities and practical considerations. \n

SUMMARY:Embodied Carbon: Why It Matters for Your Carbon-Reduction Strategy
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Sustainable Pittsburgh and CEOs for Sustainability \nYou have a handle on the greenhouse gas emissions associated with your organization’s operations\, and maybe you’ve even inventoried them as a basis for your carbon-reduction strategy. But what about emissions generated over the life cycle of the buildings you operate from? How about emissions generated over the entire life cycle of your products?  \nAccording to Architecture 2030\, embodied carbon will account for almost half of total new construction emissions between now and 2050. That makes for an incredible opportunity to reduce the emissions associated with buildings\, from the extraction\, manufacture\, and selection of the building materials through construction processes to occupancy. Suppliers of building materials have reduced their carbon emissions and achieved market advantage through Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)\, attesting to their low-carbon designs. Following this strategy\, manufacturers from other sectors are evaluating ways to reduce embodied carbon. Brands as diverse as Logitech\, Dove soap\, Lipton teas\, and Adidas are moving toward carbon footprint labels on their products. What are the opportunities for your organization?
