Washington, D.C. First Steps to Zero Advanced Energy Design Guides (AEDGs) 2

3 AEDGs? 50%? Advanced Energy Design Guide (AEDG): multiple ways, but not the only way to build energy-efficient buildings that use significantly less energy than code-minimum building (ASHRAE/IESNA Standard ) Six original guides targeted 30% energy savings: Small Office, Small Retail, K-12 Schools, Small Warehouse, Small hotel, and Small Hospital Five 50% guides recently completed, targeting 50% less energy use than Standard 90.1 Five 50% Guides 3

4 AEDG Development Collaboration among four organizations DOE provided research funding for national labs and technical reports Volunteer effort ( hours each guide) Two Peer Reviews Educational guidance not a Standard Development Original 30% guides target: contractors, designers, and design/build firms; focus on simple prescriptive recommendations 50% guides assume higher level of modeling expertise and design integration Easy to use prescriptive recommendation tables, how-to guidance and bonus savings 50% Guides add Performance design strategies and/or energy targets 4

5 Development 50% savings determined using whole building energy savings Energy is independent variable & cost-effectiveness is dependent variable TSDs (Technical Support Documents) written by National labs include sections on cost-effectiveness Guides recommend off-the-shelf technology must be available from at least 2 manufacturers Focus New Construction Also applicable to: Complete/Major Renovations Building Additions Remodeling/Modernization Projects Systems Upgrades AEDG requirements include Opaque Envelope, Fenestration, Daylighting, Lighting, HVAC, SWH, Plug, Kitchen Equipment, Quality Assurance Cx, M&V, benchmarking Includes Additional Bonus Savings 5

30 What is an Zero Energy Building (ZEB)? An energy-efficient building, where on a source energy basis, the actual annual delivered energy is less than or equal to the on-site renewable exported energy. Boundaries Building and its site Campus: set of closely related buildings Community of buildings Portfolio of buildings (single owner, different locations) 30

31 ZEB Definition Variations Zero Energy Campus An energy-efficient campus where the actual annual source energy consumption is balanced by on-site renewable energy. Zero Energy Portfolio An energy-efficient portfolio where the combined actual annual source energy consumption is balanced by on-site renewable energy. Zero Energy Community An energy-efficient community where the actual annual source energy consumption is balanced by on-site renewable energy.
