LGO Web Seminar Series Leon Glicksman, Professor of Building Technology and Mechanical Engineering, MIT Opportunities for Energy Efficiency in Buildings Presentation Date: May 16, 2011 Abstract Residential and commercial buildings use 40 percent of US energy and over two thirds of our electricity. There are numerous opportunities to reduce the consumption including advanced technologies as well as traditional measures. These include renewable energy, cool roofs, natural ventilation and continuous commissioning. We will discuss the energy savings and economic implications of these choices.  Biography Leon Glicksman is a Professor of Building Technology and Mechanical Engineering. He founded the Building technology Group at MIT 23 years ago. He has carried out research on natural ventilation, thermal insulation, and software tools for energy efficient design. He is a member of the Energy Council of the MIT Energy Initiative.
