Webinar Powering Houston: Differentiating New Homes with Distributed Energy

Thursday, July 16 | 2:00 PM Central
Matt Brost

Join EEBA and Sunrun to learn about Houston's distributed energy landscape and how builders can differentiate their communities with battery storage. We’ll cover macro factors driving consumer demand in the region, Sunrun & NRG Energy's partnership to deploy a Distributed Power Plant in Texas and the value proposition for builders and their homebuyers.

Learning Objectives: 

1)  Gain insight into the Houston energy market.

2)  Understand the function of a Distributed Power Plant (DPP).

3) Discover the rising homebuyer demand for distributed energy.

4) Overview of the Sunrun and NRG partnership.

5) The value proposition of including distributed energy in communities for Houston homebuilders and their homebuyers.

The AI-Ready Jobsite: Turning Field Data Into Predictable Builds (and Better Quality)

Webinar The AI-Ready Jobsite: Turning Field Data Into Predictable Builds (and Better Quality)

Tuesday, August 4 | 2:00 PM Central
Alec Schnall

Most jobsite software wasn't built to capture what AI actually needs. The fields, timestamps, and check-ins that platforms record today were designed for tracking tasks, not for training models or powering diagnostics. That gap is the real bottleneck standing between most builders and the AI tools they're hearing so much about. This session lays out a practical path forward. We'll define the minimum viable dataset a jobsite needs to capture, show how that data supports descriptive and diagnostic analytics that surface the real drivers of delay and rework, and then explore what becomes possible once AI is layered on top — interrogating reports, suggesting recovery paths, simulating what-if scenarios, and automating parts of schedule and field management. The goal is a set of repeatable practices any builder can apply, regardless of current tech stack, to support more starts per superintendent while improving predictability, quality, and cost performance.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Identify the minimum viable jobsite dataset needed to move from basic tracking to AI-ready field operations 
  2. Understand how to apply analytics to pinpointing the actual root causes of delay and rework on a jobsite, rather than just reporting that they happened. 
  3. Evaluate practical AI use cases layered on field data, including report interrogation, recovery-path suggestions, and what-if scenario simulation. 
  4. Apply a repeatable framework for improving predictability and cost performance regardless of current technology stack

Webinar Real Builders & Real Answers Roundtable: Why Smart Builders Use SIPs

Tuesday, August 11 | 2:00 PM Central
John Barrows, Joe Pasma, and Todd Erskin

This webinar combines decades of knowledge from SIP builders with SIP commercial and residential structures. These builders will also discuss SIP builder resources and how to start your SIP construction journey.

Join SIPA and a panel of SIP building experts for the EEBA Real Builders & Real Answers Roundtable. This interactive discussion will answer all your live audience questions regarding how SIPs can work for you! This forum introduces prospective builders (those on the fence about SIPs) to SIP science, firsthand testimony and building facts. Engage with us about the most beneficial features, industry myths and real-world projects that easily achieve and exceed high-performance criteria – even in the most stringent states.

Learning Objectives:

1) Demystify why SIPs save labor, reduce waste and simplify installation by weeks

2) Understand why the electrical and plumbing trades save time with SIPs installs

3) Convince your framers that SIPs are not complicated to use

4) Learn how code officials can reduce time and inspections on your SIP projects
