About
Janet Reyna is a leading researcher in building energy efficiency and decarbonization, with a focus on characterizing the U.S. building stock to accelerate the transition to a clean energy future. Her major contributions center on developing a national typology of buildings for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Building Construction Collaborative, a framework that categorizes the diverse building stock to inform targeted retrofit strategies and policy interventions. Her most-cited work, the “U.S. Building Stock Characterization Study,” has garnered 34 combined citations, reflecting its foundational role in shaping national decarbonization efforts. Reyna’s research bridges data science and building physics, enabling stakeholders to identify high-impact opportunities for reducing energy use and emissions. Notably, her typology has been adopted by DOE and industry partners to guide scalable solutions for building electrification and efficiency. With a growing portfolio that addresses the intersection of technology, policy, and equity, Reyna is a pivotal voice in the push to decarbonize the built environment, making her work essential for students and researchers seeking to understand the practical pathways to a sustainable building sector.
