TIME: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Description:
More and more jurisdictions are implementing Building Energy Performance
Standards (BEPS) to help address the poor energy efficiency of
buildings—a key contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and overall
energy consumption.
While some of these new standards may seem restrictive or simply
adding costs, many in fact offer increased design flexibility. But to
capitalize on the opportunity, it requires a change in design thinking.
This presentation explores a more comprehensive and integrated
approach to envelope and fenestration energy performance, with a focus
on ways to cost-optimize energy-efficiency at a whole-building scale.
Through a review of the BC Step Code & the Seattle Energy
Code-2018, this presentation will demonstrate how a
‘building-envelope-first’ design approach can help meet emerging BEPS as
well as offset costs associated with high-performance materials.
