WMAIA COTE (Committee on the Environment) presents:
Net Zero for Boston City Hall: A Case Study for the Proposed Use of Heat Pumps and Energy Recovery Ventilators for Dramatic Energy Reductions
In this presentation, Bart Bales, PE, MSME of Bales Energy Associates focuses on heat pumps and energy recovery ventilators in an interactive presentation that highlights a case study of a proposed transformation of Boston City Hall to a Net-Zero building. This transformation would result in added usable rentable floor area and strongly respect the design of this well-known, brutalist building.
In addition to talking about the proposed Boston City Hall project, Mr. Bales will share information about how heat pumps and energy recovery ventilators work and how they may be applied in residential, as well as institutional buildings. Ducted and un-ducted heat pumps will also be addressed and indications of where each is best applied will be described. Examples of residential projects will also be included.
