1. CTTC Energy Consultant Report 2009-10 ASHRAE Winter Conference – Orlando 2010 Issues and Updates: Continued Focus on Existing Buildings Energy Efficiency, Building Energy Use Reporting Growing Role of State & Local Governments Increasing Globalization of Building Energy Performance Comparison and Improvement Energy Consultant: Adam Hinge, PE E-mail: HingeA@aol.com

2. Growing Interest: Building Energy Labeling & Disclosure

3. NYC, San Francisco: Your City may be Next!

4. City/State Sustainability Planning Activities can use ASHRAE input Most State & Local Governments are setting up Advisory Committees Find out who from your Chapters are involved If no one is – get involved!! Graphic from ICLEI Sustainability Planning Toolkit, Dec. 2009

5. Investing Time Up Front may be Easier… Fixing problems after the fact can be difficult Remember, “The Perfect is the Enemy of the Good;” many stakeholders are driven by non- technical, yet valid issues

6. IPCC Scenarios for Buildings Carbon Emissions in 2030 Low Growth High Growth IPCC 2007, Buildings Chapter, in “Climate Change 2007” In either scenario, bulk of buildings energy/ emissions growth happens in Asia/ developing world

7. Wide Variations in Per Capita Use Outlook for Energy: A View to 2030; ExxonMobil, 2009

8. Different Views of Global Growth From WBCSD “Energy Efficiency in Buildings 2007 (www.wbcsd.org )www.wbcsd.org

9. US Government Collaborating with other “Major Economies” “Major Economies Forum” of largest nations has drafted “Technology Action Plan” for Buildings Sector EE Wide variation in energy use and other characteristics

10. Global Efforts toward “Common Metrics” ASHRAE and other Technical Groups have role “… While all stages of a building’s life-cycle (including construction and demolition) produce carbon emissions, the building’s operational phase accounts for 80-90% of emissions resulting from energy use mainly for heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting and appliances. Therefore, this is the stage of the building’s life-cycle that is the focus of the Common Carbon Metric.” See www.unepsbci.orgwww.unepsbci.org
