The Empire Technology Prize: What’s Next in Clean Heating for Tall Buildings

Join the winners and organizers of the $10M Empire Technology Prize for an inside look at emerging solutions to decarbonize heating in existing tall buildings. Learn about breakthrough technologies–including high-temperature heat pumps and novel distribution systems–designed to provide less disruptive decarbonization pathways for buildings on traditional fossil fuel boilers. This panel will bring together solution providers, engineers, and Prize organizers to discuss what it actually takes to bring an innovative solution into the real-world context of New York buildings. Attendees will gain an understanding about specifics including how the team selected the site, navigated FOAK risk, engaged the right stakeholders, and uncovered benefits that resonated with stakeholders. Be part of the conversation shaping the future of clean heating in high-rise buildings.

The Empire Technology Prize is supported by NYSERDA and Wells Fargo, and administered by The Clean Fight and RMI.
