City
University of New York
The
Building Performance Lab was established at the City University
of New York, within the CUNY Institute for Urban Systems, with
support from the New York State Energy Research Development Authority
(NYSERDA). The Lab's mission is to establish Building Performance
work as a "new normal" for building operations in New
York City. We promote continuous improvement processes, skills
development, and the application of cutting-edge practices for
monitoring of energy use, the indoor environment, and occupant
satisfaction. As well as working withm people who are already building
operators, we also develop internships, curriculum, and student
projects to guide the next generation into this field. We are one
part of a broader "Sustainability Initiative" at CUNY
that encompasses teaching, research and implementation of practices
by many individuals across our nineteen urban campuses. Lab Director
Michael Bobker has been a practicing energy engineer in NYC buildings
for thirty years, holds a Master of Science in Energy Management
and is a Certified Energy Manager (CEM).
