Electrification of heating and cooling is the talk of the town and the major challenge policy-makers are posing to the engineering and construction sector.  With our October meeting, we continue this discussion with considerations of research agendas, early experiences, key questions, and alternative pathways.  What is the current status of heat pump technology and its future in NYC?  What issues confront its widespread deployments?    Join us for presentations and lively discussion with thought-leaders.
