The reality is that 90% of the buildings that are here today will still be here in 2050. The real challenge for the industry is about the current building stock. - KhadijaWithout doing the retrofitting, they're gonna lose customers, they're gonna be hit with penalties and ultimately their energy costs are gonna go up. - Caleb

The HVAC system, heating, ventilation, and cooling, that's about 60% of the total consumption of an office building. - Khadija

On the current portfolio that we're steering to save around 20% on the total building 20% of CO2 and energy. - Khadija
