AEEGTA and ASHRAE Toronto Presents

Unlocking Incentives for a More Sustainable Built Environment ‍ ‍

Mechanical engineers sit at the center of some of the most impactful decisions in building performance, and this session explores how to leverage the latest available incentive programs to push projects further. The presentation examines how utilizing the latest incentives in 2026 can support high‑efficiency mechanical design, from early‑stage concept development to implementation in multi‑residential, commercial, and institutional buildings. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how incentive structures align with engineering priorities such as system optimization, lifecycle performance, and emissions reduction. They will also hear a case study on how incentives impacted a real life project.
