Bruno Peuportier is an engineer from the École Centrale de Paris, who holds a PhD from the University of Paris VI and an accreditation to supervise research (University of Cergy-Pontoise). He is currently research director at the lab recherche environnement. He has developed the COMFIE (thermal simulation of buildings) and EQUER (life-cycle assessment) softwares, led various demonstration projects concerning the construction or renovation of social housing, tertiary or school buildings, and coordinated several European projects on these themes.
Life-cycle assessment is a method to assess the environmental impacts of buildings and infrastructures throughout their life cycle, from the extraction of raw materials through to their end-of-lifetime handling.
