Syracuse Center of Excellence in Environmental and Energy Systems (SyracuseCoE) is pleased to announce the launch of a new video series, “Building Evidence,” designed to provide insights into heat pump technology, building performance, and other energy-efficiency topics.
Created by Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Profess of Practice Ian M. Shapiro, “Building Evidence” is one of the educational resources offered through the Building Training and Assessment Center (BTAC). Located at 727 E. Washington Street, BTAC trains professionals and Syracuse University students in commercial energy audits, delivers specialized workshops, and develops and tests new building assessment tools.
Shapiro is SyracuseCoE’s Associate Director of Building Science and Community Programs and co-leads BTAC with MAE Associate Teaching Professor Jackie Anderson. BTAC works collaboratively with SU’s Industrial Training and Assessment Center.
The first video in the series, “Seeing Heat Pumps Through Temperature,” is now available. This video explains heat pump operation through the lens of temperature, presenting the concept of heat transfer in a clear, accessible format.
