 A Little History/Background

Pre-Arab Oil Embargo in the 70’s – No Energy Standards

Post Embargo 1975 - ASHRAE 90.1 – Adopted as Code by Governments

and Code-writing Bodies

Two methods of compliance –

- Prescriptive requirements

- Alternative energy modeling

ASHRAE 90.1 evolved/strengthened over the years

Intelligent Envelopes™
 Current Market Drivers

Federal Energy Act (as amended in 2007) - All federal buildings must
be 30% more efficient than ASHRAE 90.1

ASHRAE 189.1 (2010) High Performance ”Green” Commercial Building

Design - about 30% more efficient than ASHRAE 90.1

USGBC LEED

Certified Silver Gold Platinum

40-49 pts. 50-59 pts. 60-79 pts. 80-100 pts.

 Current Market Drivers
LEED NC - EA Credit 1
EA Credit 1: Optimize Energy performance - 1–19 points

Intent
To achieve increasing levels of energy performance beyond the prerequisite
standard to reduce environmental and economic impacts associated with
excessive energy use.

Requirements
Option 1. Whole Building Energy Simulation (1–19 points)

Demonstrate a percentage improvement in the proposed building performance

rating compared with the baseline building performance rating. Calculate the
baseline building performance according to Appendix G of ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA
Standard 90 .1-2007 (with errata but without addenda1) using a computer
simulation model for the whole building project.
