The first annual Retrofit Canada Conference will focus on the opportunities for innovation to achieve greater sustainability and energy efficiency through retrofitting Canada’s infrastructure and buildings – commercial, industry, schools, government and residential. It is the most prominent platform for key players in the energy efficiency, sustainability and retrofitting sectors to meet, network and exchange ideas on achieving Canada’s 2050 goal.

The Retrofit Canada Conference will focus on recent laws and regulations, financing large scale retrofit projects, market trends and new technologies, project updates, investment opportunities, partnership models and sustainability.

Following the cancellation of CIPH’s 2021 ABC, CIPH will hold its annual general meeting virtually on Tuesday, June 15 at 11:00 a.m. (EST) followed by a keynote session by Chantal Hébert, national affairs columnist with the Toronto Star.

To find out more, contact [email protected] or a CIPH team member.

This three-day experience includes three keynotes, six education tracks and more than 35 continuing education units, as well as virtual exhibits.

The theme for the conference is “Design and Operation for Resilient and Healthy Buildings.” The 7^th ASHRAE LowDown Showdown Building Modeling Competition will also be held in conjunction with this conference.

Registration for this biennial event will open in April.

Organizers behind the MEET (Mechanical Electrical Electronic Technology) Show announced its postponement to 2022, returning it to its regular biennial cycle, in January 2021.

With close to 400 exhibitors and more than 6,000 attendees from throughout Canada and the U.S., MEET is the second-largest industry event of its type in Canada, and the largest trade event east of Montreal. Given the size and nature of the show and the travel that comes along with it, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the rescheduling of the event several times. Originally slated for May 6-7, 2020, the event was initially postponed to November 18-19, 2020 and then to May 5-6, 2021. Ongoing quarantine requirements, border closures, and the fact that many companies still have bans on corporate travel and in-person events have led to this latest date change.
