Ankur Podder
Research Engineer
National Renewable Energy Laboratory
Ankur joined NREL in 2019 with a focus on AEC innovation, industrialized construction, life-cycle assessment, manufacturing, and integration science. His work helps facilitate the integration of a wide range of energy efficiency strategies and distributed energy resources with industrialized construction methods such as off-site construction, modularization, prefabrication, and panelization. His work also involves strategizing the blending of factory information modeling and building information modeling into NREL's building energy modeling capabilities as well as accelerating whole-building systems integration in modular low-carbon net-zero energy buildings.
