Sustainable Buildings Canada

Since its inception in 2002, Sustainable Buildings Canada (SBC) has educated, supported, and empowered building professionals and policy makers across Canada to achieve greater levels of energy and environmental performance. SBC’s acclaimed Design Charrettes showcase architectural and operational principles and help transform the building industry to achieve these higher levels of performance.

SBC is dedicated to its pivotal role as a market catalyst to advance the environmental and energy performance of the built environment.  SBC provides green building education, training, research, and program delivery services and technical and policy research efforts.  SBC annually hosts the Green Building Festival, providing a showcase for exciting new ideas focusing on how to transform the built environment.  SBC is the founding partner of the Toronto District 2030 Initiative and is currently developing the infrastructure for launching the “Energiesprong” net zero energy retrofit program in Canada. SBC is an incorporated not for profit with offices in Toronto and Ottawa.

Join us on October 8 at the Toronto Marriott Downtown Eaton Centre for the 2019 Green Building Festival. This year, programming addresses the theme “Simple versus Complex: Building in a Changed Climate”. With more challenges to meet than ever before, the 2019 Green Building Festival will examine both simple and complex strategies, techniques and technologies to inspire the building community in reaching the goal of zero carbon.
