New York City, NY - August 27, 2024 - CREtech New York, the leading real estate innovation conference in the United States, is excited to announce a solo presentation by Manish Kumar, Executive Vice President of Digital Energy at Schneider Electric. This compelling session, titled "The Path to Net-Zero Buildings with a Technology-First Approach," will take place at the upcoming CREtech New York event on November 13-14, 2024, at the Javits Center.

Buildings account for 37% of global CO2 emissions, and by 2050, half of these structures will still be in use. To expedite decarbonization efforts, retrofitting existing buildings is crucial. But the question remains: how can we scale and accelerate these efforts to meet our ambitious goals?

In this insightful presentation, Kumar will explore how a digital technology-first approach can reduce CO2 emissions from existing buildings by up to 42%, all while ensuring faster implementation and achieving a quicker return on investment. Attendees will gain exclusive insights into the 10 key priorities essential for accelerating their building decarbonization journey.
