Comprehensive Commercial Building Efficiency Program
• Ordinance to address energy and water use in existing commercial buildings
• Extending benchmarking requirements to all commercial facilities, including most multi-family dwellings
• Tiered auditing and retro-commissioning requirements that exclude the smallest buildings and high-performing facilities
• Benchmarking, auditing and retro-commissioning would apply to both energy and water
• Implement with extensive outreach, education and resources
• Website/database for information-sharing, tracking compliance and public reporting
• Resources on: auditing & commissioning programs, rebates & incentives, financing options, on-site renewable energy generation, fuel-switching, cleaner electricity, paybacks & other benefits
• Partner with Brisbane Chamber on workshops, building owner trainings, audit demo event and outreach throughout the process
• Share! • Present to RICAPS and other venues as
requested/applicable • Toolkit of lessons learned and templates for other
jurisdictions to replicate

LOCAL HISTORY & TIMELINE
• 2005: Single Family Dwelling Energy Efficiency Ordinance
• 2010: Marin Green Building, Energy Retrofit, & Solar Transformation (BERST) process • November 2016: Adoption of 2016 Title 24 standards,
including maintenance update of previous reach code • March 2018: County BOS adopts updated green
building standards • April 2018: New green building code implementation
begins • June 2018 (anticipated): Full implementation of
energy efficiency standards begins (large single family ZNE, multifamily and commercial new construction)
REASONS FOR UPDATE
CLARITY • Project specific handouts
• Clearer language • Fewer tiers, only square footage
• Updated website
FLEXIBILITY • Performance Standard
• Multiple compliance options for both EE and green building
• Agnostic towards rating system
SUSTAINABILITY • Emphasis on all electric buildings • Near ZNE standards for new large
homes >4,000 square feet
CONSISTENCY • Working with other jurisdictions to
adopt new standards (ongoing)
ENERGY EFFICIENCY – Single Family
• New Single Family <4,000 square feet: Kept Tier 1, but added additional compliance options to incentivize all-electric homes
• New Single Family 4,000 square feet and greater: – Mixed Fuel: 35% beyond baseline and EDR of 20 or less; OR; – All-Electric: 20% beyond baseline and 2.5kW of solar; OR; – Passive House

% to be met through efficiency measures % met by PV Compliance Credit
0% = CALGreen (State Baseline)
ENERGY EFF IC IENCY – Mu l t i f am i l y
• No existing energy efficiency requirement – these are still pending CEC approval (anticipated mid-June).
• 3 Stories or Less – Mixed Fuel & 10% beyond baseline OR; – Mixed Fuel + Solar & 15% beyond baseline OR; – All-electric at baseline
• 4 Stories or More – Mixed Fuel & 10% beyond baseline OR; – All-electric at baseline
ENERGY EFF IC IENCY – Commerc ia l
• No existing energy efficiency requirement – these are still pending CEC approval (anticipated mid-June).
• All new commercial projects – Mixed Fuel & 10% beyond baseline OR; – All-electric at baseline
GREEN BU ILD ING
• Changed to center around CALGreen, rather than Green Point Rated or LEED (but kept both as options)
• All new buildings require CALGreen Tier 1 or equivalent GPR/LEED achievement
• Residential additions + remodels <750 square feet don’t trigger additional requirements beyond state
• Commercial additions + remodels <3,000 square feet don’t trigger additional requirements beyond state
• All projects above these size thresholds trigger CALGreen Tier 1 (minus additional energy efficiency requirements)
ELECTR IC VEH ICLES
• Single family residential – all new projects & remodels altering the main service panel must comply with CALGreen EV Readiness requirements
• Multifamily & Commercial New Construction: • Originally proposed 10% EV Ready and 10% EV
Capable, but Board requested 100% EV Capable. • This proposal was accepted, but with a 20% cap on
service panel capacity for parking spaces, and triggers for remodels that provide a nexus with the project scope.
LESSONS LEARNED & NEXT STEPS
• Stakeholder engagement • Existing buildings remain a challenge
– BAAQMD Grant – Ongoing energy efficiency programs – “New” Construction thresholds
• Working with other jurisdictions to encourage adoption. • Will begin to revisit reach codes for next cycle as cost-effectiveness
studies become available.

BAY AREA REGIONAL ENERGY NETWORK CODES & STANDARDS PROGRAM
Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayREN)
The BayREN is a collaboration of the nine counties that make up the San Francisco Bay Area.
Led by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), BayREN draws on the expertise, experience, and proven track record of local governments and their staff
BayREN is one of three regional energy networks (RENs) in California
Funding provided by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC)
Programs Single Family Home
Upgrade Bay Area Multifamily
Building Enhancement Financing Water Bill Savings PACE BAMCAP
Codes and Standards
Codes and Standards
Joint effort of Bay Area local governments to support the development and implementation of tools, best practices, trainings, and policies for accelerating compliance with, and exceeding, the California energy code.
Codes and Standards Two Broad Areas of Effort
Compliance Improvement: Investigate areas for improvement in code enforcement processes & offer solutions
Policy: Share best practices & develop regional resources for going above code
Codes and Standards
Codes and Standards ZNE Services and Resources Residential ZNE for New Construction Training (60-90 min): This intermediate-level
course will introduce ZNE fundamentals and practices that are the basis of ZNE projects
Municipal ZNE RFP and OPR Template Language: Request for proposal (RFP) and owner project requirements (OPR) template language for local governments to encourage developers to construct new municipal buildings to ZNE, and enable jurisdictions to value and monitor ZNE goals from project design to end construction
Technical Assistance: No-cost engineering analysis to afford local governments with the necessary ground-work analysis to understand cost-effectiveness of ZNE in municipal building types and demonstrate ZNE policy feasibility for municipal building portfolios.
Codes and Standards
Codes and Standards Regional Forums No-cost, half-day events that bring together state and
local government policy makers and implementers, building department staff, architects, energy consultants, and other stakeholders to network and learn about local adoption and implementation of energy code, green building and ZNE policies
Energy experts and program/project managers are invited to present, participate in panel discussions, and lead educational tours and other activities
Attendees can participate in-person or remotely via GoToWebinar
