Jelle Laverge - is an associate professor of the building physics research group of the Department of Architecture and Urban Planning at Ghent University with a research focus on residential ventilation and teaches amongst other things construction law.
An operating agent of IEA-EBC Annex 86 a multi-national project looking at Energy Efficient Indoor Air Quality Management in Residential Buildings,
He is a practicing attorney-at-law a member of ISIAQ, and ASHRAE.
Jelle holds an MSc in architectural engineering (2007), an ML in fiscal law (2011) and a PhD in engineering (2013) from Ghent University.
A part-time building physics lecturer also in Gent and a visiting scholar at the University of Texas.
Jelle has been focused on ventilation and air quality for a long time and brings a wealth of experience to the dialogue. Pretty much turn a page on a paper on ventilation and Jelle will be cited somewhere.
It was great to get his take on where Belgium has come from and is going with ventilation, a country that is often pushing ahead and showing the way.
The gaps that exist in performance and why. We talked about ventilation and sector through the lens of law, standards his work leading Annexe 86 a very important piece of work and much more.
