Chair(s): Dave Hubka (EUA)
Presenter(s): Jessica Martinez (DCI), Hilary Giffen (EEI), Rachel Thompson (EUA), Richard Bowden (EUA)
Clients are becoming much more focused on the emissions associated with their buildings; this pertains to both operational emissions and emissions associated with the static building elements. Embodied carbon analysis is beginning to get paired with the energy model to understand a more wholistic view of a project’s emissions. This session will focus on strategies that help a project team balance operational carbon solutions with embodied carbon strategies.
