Occupant behaviors have significant impacts on building operations and indoor environmental quality (IEQ), while occupants’ comfort and wellbeing are influenced by building design and operations. Understanding the building performance from occupant-centric perspectives is crucial to inform building design and operations given the increasing needs for energy efficiency and demand flexibility. This seminar will provide an overview of the occupant-centric building performance metrics, discuss their categories, targets, quantification methods, and implications. Existing and prospective use cases such as performance benchmarking, building code and standard compliance, and occupant-centric building controls, will also be discussed.
