BE 14 RFP Period Open

Gather, learn, get back to work

BuildingEnergy (BE) is the most established, most cross-disciplinary renewable energy and high-performance building conference and trade show in the northeastern  United States. NESEA’s flagship program, it’s an annual intergenerational gathering of professionals for three days of networking, accredited educational sessions, collaboration, and a high-level trade show. NESEA members drive the content from questions that come up in their professional lives – from ‘what type of heating system makes sense for this low load building’ to ‘how do we plan more resilient neighborhoods’? It’s a place to shape a vision of a sustainable built environment and to do the whole systems thinking it will take to get there. It’s rigorous—no greenwashing here—and it’s a blast.

All of the information you need to know about BE can be found within the expandable links to the left under the BuildingEnergy banner.

80 accredited sessions and workshops on renewable energy and green building

BE presents 10 to 12 areas of focus—we call them “tracks”—on renewables and high-performance building. Each track usually spans two days (Wednesday and Thursday) and comprises 90-minute sessions featuring one or more speakers. Sometimes we do a few one-day tracks. In addition are full- and half-day workshops (Tuesday) led by master practitioners working in the Northeast and beyond.
