They're Making Me Do What? BERDO 2.0 from the Building Owner Perspective
Building performance standards are no longer a theory. Programs that have been in development for years are now being implemented and building owners are being asked to improve the performance of their buildings. To make the task easier and ensure equitable outcomes, administrators are putting together tools and resources. Explore these resources, equity measures, and the building owner journey through the lens of Boston’s building performance standard: BERDO 2.0. This session will outline how Boston is helping its residents, including tools/resources and the Equitable Emissions Fund. A Boston building owner will share their experience learning and complying with the BPS.
