3 3 IOU Support for 2011 Title 24 The California Investor Owned Utilities (IOUs) are actively supporting the California Energy Commission (CEC) in developing the state s building energy efficiency code (Title 24) Their joint intent is to achieve significant energy savings through the development of reasonable, responsible, and cost-effective code change proposals for the 2011 code update and beyond As part of the IOU effort, at the request of the CEC, we are hosting stakeholder meetings to get industry input and feedback on our code change proposals
4 4 Code Change Activity 2011 T-24 Base Code (Part 6 of Title 24) 2011 Reach Standard (Part 11 of Title 24) Green Building Standard i.e. CalGreen Voluntary standards that local governments can adopt Some mandatory measures Future Codes 2014 T-24 Future Reach Codes
5 Requirements for a Successful Code Change 5 For base code, a measure must: Be cost-effective based on the standards-induced additional first cost, maintenance costs, measure life, and energy cost savings typically according to the Time Dependent Valuation (TDV) life-cycle costing methodology and weather data to be provided by the California Energy Commission Be possible to implement using equipment that is available from multiple providers or that is reasonably expected to be available following the code change
6 Requirements for a Successful Code Change 6 For reach code: The CEC is developing a separate set of costeffectiveness metrics Measure benefits may include emissions benefits to state, benefits of water saved in energy production, etc.
7 Acceptance Testing, Design Phase Cx, & NR HVAC CASE Topics for 2011 Title 24 Cycle 7 Codes and Standards Enhancement (CASE) Topics Acceptance Testing 1: PIER Study Acceptance Testing Acceptance Testing 2: Retro-commissioning Failure Modes Design Phase Commissioning HVAC Controls and Economizing Outside Air These CASE topics may have Base Code and/or Reach Code recommendations
8 8 Stakeholder Meetings Process Minimum of three meetings: First: present scope, request data Code change direction and possible options Methodology Best practices, market data Second: present findings Results of data collection and analysis Cost effectiveness Strawman proposed code language Third/final: present proposed code language All meetings can be attended remotely
9 9 Submitting Comments Informal Comment Process Comments can be submitted to CASE authors, substantive comments will receive responses Questions and responses will not be posted online, but common or frequent questions will be communicated as necessary between stakeholders The team will work with stakeholders to resolve issues as best we can The CEC has a formal comment process during later stages of the official rulemaking process
10 10 Schedule: Key Dates Mar Dec 2010 CEC develop foundation /methodology IOUs: Conduct research, and cost effectiveness analysis Present results at stakeholder meetings Feb 2011 IOUs finalize code change proposals for submittal to CEC Feb-July 2011 Pre-Rulemaking activities CEC workshops/ First Draft Language September 2011 CEC rulemaking CEC opens Rulemaking for Title 24, develop 45-day language March 1, 2012 Title 24 Adoption date Jan. 1, 2014 Title 24 Implementation date

12 12 Acceptance Testing Topic #1: PIER Study Acceptance Testing Stakeholder Meeting #2 PECI Energy Solutions December 7, 2010 Date
13 13 13 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Summary of current code requirements Typical practice Summary of code change proposals Data/findings Specifics of code change proposals Remaining data collection and analysis
14 14 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Current Code Requirements (Mandatory) 125 Acceptance requirements Functional tests (performance verification) performed on select lighting, envelope, & HVAC systems Acceptance tests are conducted: After construction and start-up Before occupancy and normal use of the equipment Who can perform the tests: Licensed mechanical engineer, civil engineer, architect or contractor
15 15 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Current Code Requirements (Mandatory) NA7.5.4 Air Economizer Controls Acceptance Test In-field functional tests 1. Cooling demand, economizer 100% open 2. Cooling demand, minimum position 3. Heating demand, minimum position If the economizer is factory installed and certified by the manufacturer to the CEC, no field testing is required
16 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Typical Practice 16 Performance verification is uncommon Low compliance and enforcement Responsible party not specified on forms (MECH-1C) Building officials not requesting/checking forms Building departments are underfunded and understaffed Reduced/eliminated training budgets Outsourcing plans examinations Inspectors not familiar with requirements Contractors unfamiliar with tests
17 17 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Code Change Proposals Increase compliance and enforcement Improve test protocols Modify as needed: code language test forms compliance manual reporting procedures enforcement procedures Outreach and education activities MEP firms involved with plans examinations
18 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Code Change Proposals 18 Responsible Person s Declaration Statement Allow only a licensed contractor Prohibit architect and engineer Maintains pathway of professional qualifications Improves the pathway to accountability CEC to retain electronic copies of Certificate of Acceptance documentation Similar to document registration procedures introduced for residential projects
19 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Data Collection and Analysis 19 Evaluate acceptance testing enforcement activities Phone interviews, BD visits Investigate effectiveness of acceptance tests Observe field tests: 9 sites finished, 3 scheduled Characterize the findings and make recommendations
20 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Data Collection and Analysis 20
21 21 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Specifics of Code Change Proposals MECH-2A Outdoor Air Acceptance Tests Construction Inspection: Added reference to conducting MECH-7A with MECH-2A. Added details to Instrumentation that is needed to conduct the test. Added supporting documentation for reference including Standards and Nonresidential Compliance Manual. Added information under VAV checklist to be consistent with At-aglance forms. Added information regarding fixed outside air damper as opposed to dynamically controlled damper. Added a notes section under construction inspection for contractor comments.
22 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Specifics of Code Change Proposals 22 MECH-2A Outdoor Air Acceptance Tests Functional Testing: Edited formatting to be consistent with At-a-glance forms, i.e. step # s. Added Mechanical Equipment Schedules as a reference document for design outside air requirements. Added Record VFD speed as part of procedure. Edited part B Testing Calculations & Results. Test required outside airflow within 10% of design value. Some systems not equipped with dynamic damper control thus test would fail. Title 24 only requires minimum outside airflow. Therefore added note to the form to explain if the test fails because of excessive outside air.
23 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Remaining Data Collection & Analysis 23 Estimated energy savings Use ex-post evaluation of savings, which accounts for compliance Recover a portion of these savings due to improved testing guidance and increased compliance
24 PIER Study Acceptance Testing Connections to Design Phase Cx 24 Incorporate tests into construction documents Responsible party specified on Cx plan Require the Cx Authority to collect/review forms
