- Creating a sustainable future through circular and low-carbon design: Retrofitting existing buildings emits less carbon than new construction. Considering the built environment accounts for 42% of global carbon emissions*, retrofitting and adaptive reuse are increasingly crucial in creating a sustainably built environment. Autodesk provides the industry with the data and insights needed to precisely model existing buildings and simulate various retrofit and adaptive reuse scenarios. This enables teams to evaluate and balance trade-offs related to energy and material use, significantly lowering carbon emissions of the built environment.
- Key transportation partnerships: LA28's partnership with Autodesk will support their collaboration with key public transportation agencies over the next four years in the LA region to keep LA residents, workers, businesses and more moving reliably throughout the region. LA28 will use Autodesk software to aid in the design of key Games-related transportation elements and traffic control plans.
