It has become apparent that building more fuel efficient and sustainable housing is at the heart of long term affordability. VHCB is pleased to organize and offer a workshop focusing on green building approaches for the affordable housing we develop. It will be presented by Andy Shapiro, one of Vermont’s most experienced practitioners in this area.
In this workshop, Andy Shapiro will:
(1) introduce a basic, conceptual understanding of green building;
(2) review energy and other green building options;
(3) present existing housing projects along the green continuum;
(4) review life-cycle cost analysis; and
(5) discuss planning approaches for housing organizations to get greener.
The workshop will include a panel discussion on Green Building Barrriers/Strategies with Nancy Owens of Housing Vermont, Karl Goetze of Efficiency Vermont and Bill Maclay of William Maclay Architects and Planners.
Andy Shapiro has provided energy and other green building design consulting services for 25 years to a wide variety sof clients including many affordable housing developments developed in Vermont. He is also the Scientist-in-the-Classroom for the Vermont Energy Education Program, training teachers and students from elementary to high school since 1994. He holds an Engineering degree from Brown University and is the author of a number of energy-related publications.
