We guide, pilot + promote building technology innovation to empower our net positive future.

The US Green Building Council - Los Angeles is launching the 5th year of the Net Zero Accelerator to pilot and promote technologies that help make zero carbon, zero energy, zero water, and zero waste buildings a reality for the region. To date we've guided the success of 70 companies.

Large gaps exist today between net zero building policy and current technologies in use. This program will bridge those gaps by identifying viable technologies, positioning them for success, and accelerating their market entry in Los Angeles.

The accelerator will source innovative startups, pair them with experts to encourage scalable adoption, and promote awareness of solutions with an emphasis on placing technology pilots with building partners that support a net positive future.

This is a virtual program with in-person opportunities. The key requirements are 1) impact on net zero energy, carbon, water, and/or waste, 2) at minimum a market-ready prototype but ideally some market penetration somewhere, 3) a high level of interest in the Greater Los Angeles market.
