The highly anticipated Passive House Canada Conference is set to take place in Ottawa for the first time, marking the 7th annual gathering of industry leaders, policymakers, and innovators. This premier green building event is a must-attend for those passionate about advancing low-carbon, high-performance, sustainable building practices.

The event will be available both in-person and live-online, ensuring accessibility to a broad audience.

Attendees can enjoy:

  • 27 speaker sessions to choose from

  • Daily breakfast and lunch

  • Networking social events

  • Project tours

  • Online access to watch session replays

  • Discounts on additional training opportunities

NEW FREE EVENT: This year, for the first time, the Passive House Canada Conference is holding a free open house, where non-attendees can network with exhibitors, as well as Passive House Canada staff and conference attendees.

WORKSHOPS: Outside of the conference, we’re also offering 3 additional workshops:

  • Passive House for New or Complex Typologies, where the Passive House Institute will teach us how the Passive House concept can be applied to more complex projects like hotels, educational buildings, hospitals, and swimming pools.

  • Big Building Ventilation, where Peel Passive House will teach us how to approach ventilation in large buildings and learn best practices in ventilation system design while working within the confines of building codes.

  • Navigating Building Certification, where Peel Passive House will teach us effective resources and strategies to help practitioners navigate the building certification process to ensure a successful outcome.

With Passive House projects gaining momentum in Eastern Canada, this year’s conference is poised to amplify that growth, offering a platform to explore how “low-carbon” aligns with the Passive House standard. Passive House buildings significantly reduce operational carbon emissions through ultra-efficient design, making them the optimal strategy for emission reduction.
