SUMMARY:Leveraging Data-Driven Methods and Time-of-Use Data to Evaluate Urban Decarbonization Policies and Streamline Building Energy Audits
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Abigail Andrews\, Post-Doctoral Associate and NJ BPU Energy Fellow in Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy’s Center for Urban Policy Research.  \nIdentifying opportunities to minimize energy use and carbon emissions of buildings is important for urban decarbonization. However\, doing so often necessitates a capital-intensie building energy audit that requires time-intensive on-site inspections. As municipalities across the United States mandate various urban decarbonization policies (e.g.\, benchmarking\, audits\, and building performance standards) there is a growing need for building owners to audit buildings efficiently and at a low cost. Emerging data streams (e.g.\, automated meter infrastructure) allow the evaluation of real time energy use and carbon emissions data. This data not only provides a deeper understanding into building operations but also may provide audit insights and decarbonization opportunities. This seminar will discuss the potential of integrating time-of-use data in urban decarbonization policy and the development of an integrated physics-based model and data-classification method to identify potential inefficiencies in a building using electric meter data. Time-of-use energy data paired with machine learning may streamline urban decarbonization policy by improving the effectiveness and scalability of evaluation processes. \nDr. Andrews received her PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Stanford University at the Urban Informatics Lab. She also holds a MS in Sustainable Design and Construction from Stanford University and a BA in Environmental Policy from Barnard College. Dr. Andrews uses data from building energy policies (e.g.\, benchmarking\, building performance standards\, auditing) to evaluate urban decarbonization potential and to push forward equitable building decarbonization. Currently\, Dr. Andrews is interested in how municipalities can encourage the design and construction of Grid-Interactive Efficient Buildings. \nFor questions Dr. David Coit (coit@soe.rutgers.edu)\, Dr. Aziz Ezzat (aziz.ezzat@rutgers.edu) or Dr. Elin Wicks (elm52@soe.rutgers.edu)

SUMMARY:The Street Project Film Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:“The Street Project” uncovers the truth about a troubling trend: more and more people walking and bicycling are being seriously injured or killed on American roads. The filmmakers engage experts including street historian Peter Norton\, city planner Jeff Speck\, and urban design expert Mikael Colville-Andersen whose interviews are interwoven with the stories of local champions working to make their communities safer. “The Street Project” is a film that takes viewers on a global journey to discover a better way of doing things. \n\n\n\n\nPlease join us for a film screening and discussion on Tuesday\, February 6\, 2024\, from 4 to 6 pm. There will be a moderated discussion with panelists and participants following the screening. Registration is free\, but seats are limited. Light refreshments will be served. \nThis event is co-sponsored by the American Planning Association – New Jersey Chapter (APA-NJ) and the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy with support from the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) through the New Jersey Bicycle and Pedestrian Resource Center at the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center. \nRSVP HERE
