Benefits of a Building Energy Labeling Program
– Increased Asset Value for Higher Performing Buildings
– Emission Reductions– Opportunity for Energy Efficient Financing– Job Creation – New Energy Assessors– Consumer Choice
Implementation Approaches
15
Implementation Approaches
Voluntary vs. Mandatory
16
Implementation Approaches
A Mandatory Program has Several Resistances:– Issue of System First Costs for Building Owners– Possibility of ‘Devaluing’ properties that do not
perform well– Realty Groups that do not Want Additional Steps
to their Sales Processes.– Possible Large Cost to Federal Government
17
Implementation Approaches
California – AB 1103Clean Energy Future Act 2007
– Covers all Non-Residential Buildings– Requires Usage of a Currently Voluntary
Program, Energy Star for Buildings– Centrally Collects Building Energy Usage Data
18
Implementation Approaches
A Voluntary Program has Several Advantages:– Utilize Market Forces to Place Value on Energy
Efficiency– Less Cost for Local, State and Federal
Governments– Easily Adoptable as Mandatory Programs by Local
and State Governments at Low Cost
Conclusions
19
Conclusions
– Design for Voluntary but Adoptable as Mandatory for Local or State Usage
– Include Both New and Existing Buildings– Provide Education Grants for Energy Modelers and
Assessors– Provide Financial Incentives for Lenders to Provide
Energy Efficient Mortgages
