He also founded and continues to lead SolShare Energy\, the first community investment solar project in BC. \nBOMA BC’s Solar Energy Guide \nThis new guide offers practical insights for property managers looking to reduce operating costs and improve sustainability. The guide explains how solar energy systems—especially photovoltaic (PV)—can be easily retrofitted to most commercial buildings\, even in BC’s cloudy climate. It outlines mounting options for flat and sloped roofs\, utility approval processes\, and key financial incentives\, including rebates and tax credits. With typical payback periods under 10 years and strong returns\, solar is a smart investment. The guide also covers battery storage\, demand charge reduction\, and contractor selection to help ensure smooth implementation.

SUMMARY:Members Meeting (virtual) "What Tenants Want"
DESCRIPTION:Member Meeting – March 2 (Virtual) \nMarch 2\, 9:30–11:00 am (Zoom webinar) \nWe’re pleased to welcome Jennifer Davis\, Principal at TurnLeaf Consulting\, who will present: \nWhat Tenants Want: An Examination of ESG Factors in Office Market Considerations  \nThis year-long\, BOMA BC–led research study was motivated by a common assumption in commercial real estate: that sustainability investments enhance a building’s ability to attract and retain tenants. \nDrawing on 449 survey responses across 65 office buildings and 15 industries\, along with in-depth interviews with tenant representatives and commercial real estate experts\, the study offers the first regionally grounded\, empirical analysis of tenant priorities in our local market. \nThe presentation explores: \n\nWhich building features are true non-negotiables\nWhich features are less valued than expected\nWhat ESG-prioritizing tenants have in common\n\nThe study concludes with practical\, role-specific recommendations for landlords\, building managers\, brokers\, developers\, tenants\, and policymakers. \n👉 Register here
