•!Last data set collected in 2003 •!CBECS 2012 data collection starts in April 2013 •!Provides site and source EUI by building type •!Snapshot in time, does not set reduction targets

Energy Independence & Security Act of 2007 •!H.R. 6 page 121 – Federal Building Energy Efficiency Performance Standard •!In 2010, reduce fossil-fuel based energy consumption by 55% compared to

CBECS 2003 •!By 2030, reduce fossil-fuel energy based consumption by 100% compared to

CBECS 2003

2030 Challenge •!Immediate 60% reduction in fossil-fuel based energy, with 100% reduction by

2030 •!Underpinned by both ENERGY STAR Target Finder program, and CBECS 2003

data •!Progress measured by site EUI •!Focus on “carbon neutrality”, not “net zero energy”

ENERGY STAR •!Rating earned based on measured (or modeled) performance compared to

similar buildings in same climate zone •!Limited number of building types are eligible (K12 schools are eligible!) •!Ratings based on source EUI – so fuel type plays a bigger role in this system

LEED for Schools •!Whole building rating system focused on school concerns •!Points awarded for design phase energy performance predictions •!Energy assessed based on predicted decrease from theoretical baseline •!Option exists to recertify over time using actual performance data (LEED for

Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance)

CHPS-VA •!Whole building rating system focused on school concerns •!Points awarded for design phase energy performance predictions •!Energy assessed based on predicted decrease from theoretical baseline •!Energy Performance Rating Goal of 75+ using Target Finder, strive to meet site EUI

target •!Option to participate in CHPS Operations Report Card program (not recertification)

LEED for Schools (v3) 5%-48% better than ASHRAE 90.1-2007

LEED for Schools (v4) 3%-50% better than ASHRAE 90.1-2010

CHPS-VA (2011) 15%-50% better than ASHRAE 90.1-2007
