Code Breaker: Solar, Battery & Zero Net Carbon Design 2025 Energy Code
2026-04-09 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Virtual
Registration for this FREE webinar, brought to you by Energy Code Ace will close at 12:00 pm PT on Thursday, April 9, 2026. Please note – this program does not offer ZNCD mandatory continuing education hours.
Join us for this one-hour presentation to review the 2025 Energy Code (Title 24, Part 6, the California Building Energy Efficiency Standards) requirements that support the goals of a Zero Net Carbon Design (ZNCD) project. We will review updated requirements for solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage system (BESS), domestic hot water system requirements supporting electrification, pool and spa requirements supporting heat pump technology, limits on Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) design options, and additional heat pump design requirements. We’ll also explore the new Performance Approach compliance metric “Long-term System Cost” (LSC), which converts the predicted site energy use to long-term dollar costs to California’s energy system.

ARE/CSE Study Hub – PjM/PcM – Project Execution
2026-04-13 17:30 - 18:30
Study Hub is AIA California’s pathway for emerging professionals to study and pursue licensure. These statewide ARE study sessions and virtual study groups serve as a hub for education, connection, and community. This portal does not replace other study materials or resources, rather it supplements them, serving as a network and allowing for collaboration between EPs and AIA professionals across California.
This year, we’re streamlining your study experience by grouping commonly paired exams together.
Practice Management(PcM) focuses on the management of architectural practice, including professional ethics, fiduciary responsibilities, and the regulations governing the practice of architecture.
Project Management(PjM) focuses on the management of architectural projects, including organizing principles, contract management, and consultant management. You should be able to demonstrate an understanding of and abilities in quality control, project team configuration, and project scheduling.
Session Topic: Project Execution
