About this Event

BERDO Fest is a free event dedicated to bringing together the stakeholders driving building emissions reductions across Boston. BERDO Fest will serve as a central hub for BERDO building owners and property managers to build connections with experts and professionals across the building decarbonization ecosystem. Participants will learn about the projects that the City is recognizing as leading in building decarbonization. The event will feature a vendor fair that will run from 12:00 - 6:00pm, and panel disucssions throught the day (topics and times listed below). A light lunch will be provided.


What is BERDO?

Boston’s Building Emissions Reduction and Disclosure Ordinance (BERDO) is a local law that aims to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions generated by large buildings in Boston. Building owners subject to BERDO are required to report their buildings’ annual energy and water consumption. Starting in either 2025 or 2030, they will also need to comply with building emissions standards (i.e., emissions limits). These emissions standards decrease over time, with all buildings expected to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
