The B2E Theory of Change

The B2E Coalition is a network of leaders from all parts of the building electrification system in BC. We are working together to make significant contributions to decarbonize the building sector in BC by shifting the market toward electrification. We know that achieving this goal requires us to learn from each other's experiences, collaborate with each other, and actively find and implement solutions to the barriers that are inhibiting this shift.  

We believe that we have the responsibility and agency to take individual, organizational, and collective actions that transform the equipment inside each building, maximize efficiency and reduce demand impacts, and utilize cleaner fuel sources. These actions require us to be agile and work together on multiple fronts at the same time in coordinated and aligned ways, including increasing building owner demand, shifting the culture of contractors and trades, encouraging greater product availability, improving affordability for everyone, and supporting policy and regulation.  

We share our experiences and insights in a trusted space, learning from one another’s successes and setbacks. All of this work is in service of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from buildings in BC in ways that centre equity, and that support achievement of our climate targets from the local to international levels. 

Our Theory of Change focuses on five areas: 

• Relationship Building 

• Information Sharing 

• Shared Language and Understanding 

• Peer Review & Consultation 

• Member Support & Funding 

We recognize that building electrification is a long-term process that presents both challenges and opportunities for implementation. Our Theory of Change helps us to navigate through the intricacies and ultimately achieve our vision.
