The Accelerate to Zero Awards are back for their third year to recognise the businesses, organisations, and individuals making the most significant contributions to decarbonising the built environment and supporting the just transition to a zero carbon built environment. This year, the awards will take place on the evening of Thursday, 6th November, at Oran Mor in Glasgow, following the International Retrofit Summit, which is part of BE-ST Fest.
BE-ST Fest, delivered by BE-ST (Built Environment – Smarter Transformation), is the UK’s biggest festival for a zero carbon built environment and plays host to transformative discussion and knowledge exchange on how we can break through barriers to accelerate our journey to net zero. This year, we are tackling debates on how we can scale solutions and create a viable path to a sustainable future for the built environment.
The Accelerate to Zero Awards are free to enter and offer a platform to celebrate the progress, innovation and impact being made within the sector. Find out how to enter here: https://be-stfest.org/accelerate-to-zero-awards
