On Tuesday, January 31 at 2pm PST in the Beko Booth will be a panel discussion titled, “Creating the Net Zero Home + Kitchen: Questions Every Designer, Builder & Homeowner Should Ask.” The discussion will feature an exclusive video preview of the Wann Family Net Zero Case Study House to be completed in Feb. 2023 in Santa Monica, Calif.
The expert panel includes:
- Akın Garzanlı, Chief Marketing Officer of Arcelik, which manages 12 sustainability-focused global appliance brands and is continually ranked as the world’s most sustainable appliances manufacturer.
- Zach Elkin, President of Beko Home Appliances U.S., which is introducing a new suite of water- and energy-saving Beko appliances in 2023 as part of the Beko Healthy Kitchen initiative introduced in 2022.
- Mike Wann, Chief Strategy Officer of Super League Gaming, who is building one of the world’s most integrated, affordable Net Zero residences to show others how accessible sustainable home and kitchen design can be.
Discussion topics include:
- How can the industry make it easier to build (or remodel an existing home into) a Net Zero residence – which produces as much energy from onsite renewable resources as it uses?
- Why is Net Zero the new benchmark for sustainable living and new residential construction?
- Why is kitchen appliance mix so crucially important to a truly sustainable project?
- What questions should designers, builders, dealers and homeowners ask about Net Zero?
- What can we learn from Mike Wann, who researched hundreds of brands to create a short list of the most sustainable home and kitchen products for the Net Zero Case Study House he is building?
- What is on the horizon of sustainable appliance and kitchen design at Arcelik, widely regarded as the world’s most sustainable appliance manufacturer?
