Taking place this September 15 & 16 at the Pasadena Convention Center, the Summit stands as a powerful reflection of two decades of leadership, education, and collaboration in driving environmental progress.
Green Technology is bringing together it’s two flagship events (Sustainable Facilities Forum and the Green California Schools & Higher Education Summit) for ONE unforgettable 20-year celebration for the Public Sector; State, Local Government, Schools, and Higher Education all in one place at one time!
For 20 years, Green Technology has served as a trusted platform connecting public-sector leaders with cutting-edge sustainability solutions. Through dynamic events, educational programming, and year-round engagement, the organization has played a critical role in shaping California’s approach to climate action, energy efficiency, and environmental responsibility. The 2026 Green California Summit celebrates this legacy while setting the stage for the next era of innovation.
This year’s Summit will bring together government officials, sustainability experts, maintenance and operations, architects and engineers, educators, and industry innovators for a comprehensive agenda designed to address today’s most pressing environmental challenges. Attendees can expect a robust lineup of sessions focused on key topics such as decarbonization and embodied carbon, climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies, and advancing climate literacy across institutions.
Education remains a central theme, with sessions exploring sustainability in the curriculum and student engagement, as well as transformative solutions for outdoor learning environments. The Summit will also highlight the growing importance of schools and the role they play in integrating environmental responsibility into everyday learning experiences. Bridging the gap between facilities and the classroom, discussions on environmental literacy will emphasize the need for a holistic approach to sustainability in education systems.
In addition to education-focused content, the Summit will provide critical updates on policies and standards shaping California’s sustainable future. Attendees will gain valuable insights into CALGreen, energy code updates, municipality master planning and strategies for stormwater management and fire resilience. These sessions are designed to equip public-sector stakeholders with the knowledge and tools needed to implement impactful, forward-thinking solutions in their communities.
The 20-year anniversary celebration will also include special recognition of individuals and organizations that have contributed significantly to advancing sustainability efforts across the state. This moment of reflection underscores the collaborative spirit that has defined Green Technology’s mission since its inception.
