Meet the Boston 2026 Content Committee

The content of BuildingEnergy Boston is curated by a volunteer committee of NESEA Members, who collectively put in hundreds of hours throughout the year to ensure that conference sessions are genuinely useful to attendees. If you are interested in serving on a future committee, please contact Ben Sachs-Hamilton, Conference Manager, at bsachs-hamilton@nesea.org.
 

2025 Conference Chairs

 

Gregory Smith is a Senior Project Manager dedicated to bringing a focus on sustainability to every project, and promoting awareness and enthusiasm for Passive House, ZNE and carbon neutrality. He is a Certified Passive House Consultant through PHIUS.

 

Clay Tilton is the Existing Buildings Program Manager at Built Environment Plus. A key part of his work is launching the Building Performance Exchange, a centralized resource for improving efficiency and reducing emissions for large existing buildings in Massachusetts.
