Blokable and NREL speak at Greenbuild 2022

NREL Senior Energy Efficiency Research Engineer Shanti Pless and Blokable Chief Product Officer Timothy Miller presented the session Decarbonizing Multi-family Housing Development: Actionable Pathways to GHG Emission and Building Cost Reduction with Industrialized Construction at Greenbuild 2022 in San Francisco, Calif.

During the session they discussed the findings of NREL’s 2022 report, Decarbonization During Predevelopment of Modular Building Solutions. With Vertically Integrated Modular housing developer Blokable’s standardized housing unit as the basis of its research, NREL’s report details actionable pathways for homebuilders to reduce NZE incremental costs and significantly reduce GHG emissions by 2030 with advanced building construction. The peer-reviewed research found Blokable capable of eliminating 60% of GHG emissions and 91% of material waste from new multi-family housing creation through a three-phase development framework for financially viable high-performance projects. shared how productized modular builders can utilize this new development framework to benefit from the learning effects of industrialized construction and achieve scalable and sustainable NZE multi-family housing creation.

Together, Shanti Pless and Timothy Miller shared how productized modular builders can utilize this new development framework to benefit from the learning effects of industrialized construction and achieve scalable and sustainable NZE multi-family housing creation.
