GBA @ GCEAF

Pittsburgh has been chosen as the host city for the Global Clean Energy Action Forum in 2022. Presented by the U.S. Department of Energy with support from Carnegie Mellon University, this in-person gathering of the Clean Energy Ministerial and Mission Innovation ministerial offers an incredible opportunity to collaborate on rapid deployment of clean energy technologies. 

As an enthusiastic ambassador for our region's sustainable development leadership, and in recognition of the built environment's critical role in the transition to clean energy, Green Building Alliance will provide resources and experiences alongside the international conference. GBA's Jenna Cramer is also delighted to serve on the Host Committee for this special gathering. Our offerings will include:

In addition to offering opportunities to build new relationships and develop solutions, GBA's team is also excited to provide the following tools and resources:

Pittsburgh Green Story: GBA manages the Pittsburgh Green Story website with Veritas Communications Advisors in order to cohesively share our region's sustainable development news. Leading up to and during the Global Clean Energy Action Forum, this tool serves as a repository for stories relevant to the clean energy transition. Partners can submit stories, conference attendees can gain additional context about our region, and reporters can access story leads and interviews.

Green Building Walking Tour Map: Pittsburgh is home to some of the greenest buildings in the world and several trail-blazing green building firsts. Our green building walking tour will ensure visitors can see and explore Pittsburgh's variety of healthy and high-performing buildings, whether on a short conference break downtown or during a chance to explore more of the city.
