Description

DOEE recently released an updated resource to provide additional clarity and flexibility for building owners as the District approaches the end of the first BEPS Compliance Cycle: version 1.2 of the DC BEPS Guidebook.

Join the Building Innovation Hub for an informational session to learn about these changes, why they matter, and what they mean for building owners working toward BEPS compliance.

We’ll be joined by special guest Katie Bergfeld, Associate Director of the Building Performance Division at the Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE), who will walk participants through key updates and help clarify what building owners need to know as the Cycle 1 deadline approaches.

Topics covered will include (but are not limited to):

  • DC BEPS Score
  • Exemptions, including new details on financial distress
  • Building Improvement Agreements (new settlement option)
  • Alternative compliance pathways
  • Refresher on timeline, key dates, and where you can go for help
  • Resources and support available through the Building Innovation Hub

Come and familiarize yourself with the latest information, ask questions, and better understand your options as a building owner as we approach the deadline for BEPS Compliance Cycle 1.

Date: September 15th, 2026.

Time: 1:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)
