Building Performance Summit

BUILDING PERFORMANCE SUMMIT Better Performance. Better Homes. The Building Performance Summit brings Saskatchewan’s residential construction industry together to answer one critical question: how do we build higher-performing homes without losing sight of affordability, practicality and what buyers actually value? This is not a theoretical conversation. The Summit will dig into the real numbers, real challenges and real opportunities shaping the future of homebuilding in Saskatchewan. From energy performance and construction costs to consumer expectations, code readiness and emerging approaches to building better, the focus is on turning insight into action. Delegates will leave with practical tools, stronger industry connections and a clearer understanding of what is changing, what it costs, what works and what Saskatchewan should do next.

The Building Performance Summit is delivered as part of SRHBA’s Energy Concierge Initiative, supported through the Codes Acceleration Fund. This project is funded in part by the Government of Canada.
