In this week’s podcast, Matt is joined by Craig Stevenson, President & Co-Founder of Auros Group, to talk about the intersection of building science and data science for the purpose of decarbonizing buildings. Auros mainly focuses on MUSH (Municipal, University, School, Hospital) commercial buildings, but he shares incredible insights on how the decarbonization of commercial buildings can translate to residential building.

They discuss the benefits of a building a Passive House and focusing on decarbonization to their clients, including lower utility bills, health, and comfort. Craig shares, “you can have a great home that still uses very, very little energy…without paying a premium.”

Matt and Craig agree that before any project, builders should ask themselves “what’s the most efficient building I can build?”

Listen to how we can measure building performance and why carbon is the only metric we can’t “game.”
