View a free guide to energy codes and building performance standards, including model energy codes and case studies.
A database of energy efficiency programs by state based off of the North Carolina Clean Energy Technology Center's Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE). Efficiency programs are categorized by residential and commercial programs.
This report considers the options for implementing a building performance standard across a broader scope of buildings and geography than a single city or state: federally owned or leased buildings, which comprise 1 billion square feet across the country.
This report assesses the various tradeoffs and challenges of designing building performance standards (BPS) in order to facilitate compliance and promote cost-effectiveness.
The standards experts at NBI explain how building owners and developers can get ready for ambitious clean-energy ordinances happening in cities and states throughout the U.S.
Building performance standards are a promising approach aiming to achieve a highly effective, long-term, technology-neutral method to improve building performance. This brief explores the power and potential of performance mandates to make transformational changes in building performance, and the relationship between green buildings and BPS.
