- We hear the word “decarbonization” all the time these days, but what does it really mean and what does it entail? RMF Engineering Director of Sustainability, Martha Larson, will lead a high-level overview of the decarbonization movement and what it means for district energy.
Before joining RMF, Martha led a decade-long program to decarbonize the Carleton College campus in Northfield, MN. Projects included installation of two on-site wind turbines, rooftop solar thermal and solar PV arrays, electric vehicle charging stations and a full campus wide transition from steam to hot water distribution and geothermal heat pumps. The result was a nearly 70% reduction in the campus carbon footprint, as well as many lessons learned along the way.
We will also review upcoming YPG activities, including the District Energy 101 program at IDEA2023
