Multi-Family SectorMulti-Family Sector
75% of multi-family sector is covered by ENERGY STAR New Homes Program
What about the other 25%?
Multi-Family High-Rise Multi-Family High-Rise
Barriers to overcome in developing an ENERGY STAR Program:– Split incentive– Tenant turn over– Modeling tools– Limited Data– No definition of energy
efficient building– No clear diagnostic
procedures
Ad-hoc National Working GroupAd-hoc National Working Group
Recommended:– 20% better than ASHRAE 90.1 as defined by
appendix G– Top quartile on RECS benchmarking tool
Developed: – Cost Guidelines– Minimum Performance Standards– Simulation Guidelines– System Performance Testing Protocols
Multi-Family High-Rise PilotsMulti-Family High-Rise Pilots
Pilots running in NY, WI and OR
Intend to expand pilot
To become an ENERGY STAR Program• Cost Effective• Represents real energy
reduction • Provides value in the
market place• Feasible and easy to
implement
OR - Energy Trust of Oregon
WI – Focus on Energy
NY - NYSERDA
