1 Relevant ASHRAE and International Standards and Codes for Building Prof. Walid Chakroun, DRC, RAL ASHRAE Engineering the World We Live In Road to Climate Friendly Chillers - Moving Beyond CFCS and HCFCS September 30 October 1, 2010 Cairo, Egypt

2 Today s building designs mortgage our energy future.

3 Why Are Buildings So Important? World total energy consumption is expected to increase as high as 50 percent in less than two decades. Buildings are responsible for 38% of total energy use that figure increases to up to 70% in some countries. 40% of U.S. Primary Energy Consumption Source: 2007 Buildings Energy Data Book. Tables 1.1.3, 1.2.3,

4 Fastest Growing Energy Sector Industrial Transportation Buildings Total 30 Quads Year Source: EIA Annual Energy Review, Tables 2.1b-2.1f., June 2007 Buildings sector energy consumption growing faster than any other sector.

5 Building Energy Efficiency is the single most important opportunity for reducing greenhouse gas emissions ( ASHRAE President Kent Peterson) is the fastest-growing success story of the last 50 years (American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy)

6 What is ASHRAE Doing to Help

7 Standard 90.1 Standard to be published this fall Celebrating 35 th anniversary of publication of Standard 90.1 Developed in response to U.S. energy crisis of 1970s ry

8 Standard standard is the reference standard for the International Energy Conservation Code Adopted by National Fire Protection Association

9 Standard 90.1 Provides minimum requirements for the energyefficient design of buildings except low-rise residential buildings Covers New buildings and their systems Additions alterations

10 Standard 90.1 Sections Section 1 purpose Section 2 scope Section 3 definitions, abbreviations and acronyms Section 4 administration and enforcement Section 5 building envelope Section 6 heating, ventilating and air conditioning

11 Standard 90.1 Sections Section 7 service water heating Section 8 power Section 9 lighting Section 10 other equipment Section 11 energy cost budget method Section 12 normative references

12 Standard 90.1 Building built according to Standard is 35% more efficient than one built in compliance with Standards and 90A-1989 Building built in compliance with Standard expected to use less than half the energy per floor area than one built to Standard and 90A-1980

13 Standard 90.1 Energy reduction from to estimated between 21.7 and 30.98% Range is large, assumptions such as ventilation rates and which loads to include in the final percentage calculation make a big difference Waiting on modeling some energy-saving addenda for final reduction figures

14 Standard 90.2 The purpose of this standard is to provide minimum requirements for the energy-efficient design of residential buildings. 14

15 Standard 90.2 It applies for the design and construction of new residential dwelling units and their systems, new portions of residential dwelling units and their systems and new systems and equipment in existing dwelling units. 15

16 Standard 90.2 This standard applies to the building envelope, heating equipment and systems, air-conditioning equipment and systems, domestic water-heating equipment and systems, and provisions for overall building design alternatives and trade-offs. 16

17 Green Building Standard Published in January 2010 Serves as benchmark for sustainable green buildings does not apply to all buildings Addresses energy, impact on the atmosphere, sustainable sites, water use, materials and resources and IEQ

18 What is Standard 189.1? ANSI standard developed in model code language Provides minimum requirements for high-performance, green buildings Applies to all buildings intended as high performance except low-rise residential buildings (same as ASHRAE/IESNA Std 90.1) Not a design guide, not a rating system Jurisdictional compliance option to the International Green Construction Code published by the International Code Council and cooperating sponsors, American Institute of Architects and ASTM International

19 Goals for Standard Establish mandatory criteria in all topic areas One challenge is existing green building rating systems contain few mandatory provisions Provide simple compliance options Complement green building rating programs Standard is not intended to compete with green building rating programs

20 Standard Building Blocks

21 Standard Topic Areas SS WE EE IEQ MR CO Sustainable Sites Water Use Efficiency Energy Efficiency Indoor Environmental Quality Building s Impact on the Atmosphere, Materials & Resources Construction and Operations Plans

22 Sustainable Sites Highlights 1. Site Selection 2. Reduce heat island effect 3. Reduce light pollution SS WE EE IEQ MR CO

23 Water Use Efficiency Site Water Use Highlights Bio-diverse plantings, hydrozoning, & smart irrigation controllers Building Water Use Plumbing fixtures & fittings, appliances, HVAC systems & equipment, generally 40% lower than U.S. EPAct 1992 Disallow once through cooling with potable water WE SS EE IEQ MR CO

24 Energy Efficiency Highlights More energy efficient than Standard Renewable energy provisions Energy measurement for verification Electric peak load reduction SS WE EE IEQ MR CO

25 Energy Efficiency Prescriptive Option On-site renewable energy systems Annual energy production equivalent of 6 KBtu/ft 2 of conditioned space Exception for areas with incident solar radiation less than 4 kwh/m 2 - day and purchase of green power of 75 kwh/ft 2 -yr for a period not to exceed ten years SS WE EE IEQ MR CO

26 Indoor Environmental Quality Indoor Air Quality Highlights Ventilation rates per ASHRAE Standard 62.1 Outdoor air flow rate monitoring of minimum outside air MERV 8 filter (MERV 13 in PM2.5 non-attainment areas) No smoking inside building Source contaminant control Daylighting Acoustical Control SS WE EE IEQ MR CO

27 Building s Impact on the Atmosphere Highlights Construction waste management Reduced Impact materials Wood Products Refrigerants Storage and Collection of Recyclables and Discarded Goods SS WE EE IEQ MR CO

28 Construction and Operation Highlights Acceptance Testing/Commissioning IAQ Construction Management Plan Plans for Operation High-performance building operation Maintenance Service Life Transportation management SS WE EE IEQ MR CO

29 What is Your Best Path Forward? Begin to understand the impact of these new requirements on your business and technical expertise Identify what requisite skills and knowledge you will need once this standard and green codes are implemented Share your knowledge and experience with policymakers who will ultimately implement programs that will impact ASHRAE members

30 The Standards Executive Committee recommends that International Standards activities should be supported by ASHRAE staff. If we are to be an International Society, this will be the kind of action that must be taken and supported by ASHRAE.

31 In a global marketplace, the objective of the standards development process must be a single, internationally recognized, technically valid standard that allows products to be distributed for commerce worldwide with minimal change or modification. One Global Standard Accepted by All

32 ISO Activities Four ISO Technical Committees

33 ISO/TC 86 Refrigeration and air-conditioning SC 1 - Safety and environmental requirements for refrigerating systems (ASHRAE) SC 2 - Terms and definitions (ASHRAE) SC 3 - Factory made refrigeration systems (AHRI) SC 4 - Refrigerant compressors (SAC) SC 5 transferred to IEC SC 6 - AC and heat pumps (AHRI) SC 7 - Commercial display cases (AHRI) SC 8 - Refrigerants and refrigeration lubricants (ASHRAE)
