Designing and Modeling for Net Zero

February 27, 2018 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

Completed in 2015, P.S. 62 is NYC’s first net-zero energy school, designed under the requirements of the New York City School Construction Authority. The 66,000 square foot, 2-story school will serve 440 pre-kindergarten through 5th grade students on Staten Island, NY. The building harvests as much energy from renewable on-site sources as it uses on an annual basis. The primary renewable energy system is a roof mounted photovoltaic array.

This presentation will discuss the challenges and opportunities faced by the design team, while working hand-in-hand with critical decision makers on the owner and user teams. The presentation will cover the schools design and how the energy modeling process evolve throughout the design. Establishing assumptions with user groups, making design decisions and ultimately establishing energy usage targets, critical to the Net Zero Goals of the school.
