Sustainability Advisory Board Meeting Minutes <br />August 17, 2022 <br />• The City of Boulder has had an energy performance goal for <br />more than 10 years. <br />• From an enforcement standpoint, buildings would need to <br />hire an energy rater to assess their building EUI, and the <br />buildings would need to meet or exceed their EUI targets to <br />get their building approved by the city. <br />• Policy 2a: Net Zero Code (Appendix CC): Buildings would need to install <br />enough renewable energy and/or purchase enough Renewable Energy <br />Credits (RECs) to offset their annual energy usage. Buildings would be <br />required to be electric -ready and electric vehicle ready. <br />Exceptions/reductions of the offset requirement could potentially be <br />granted to industrial facilities, laboratories, manufacturing, hospitals, and <br />restaurants. <br />• Considerations: <br />• Net zero required. <br />• Offsite PV and Onsite PV required. <br />• Base code efficiency. <br />• More flexibility with fuel choice. <br />• Electric -ready required. <br />• Exemptions considered. <br />• Policy 2b: Net Zero Code (Appendix CC) and All -Electric: Buildings would <br />need to install enough renewable energy and/or purchase enough <br />Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) to offset their annual energy usage. <br />Buildings would be required to be all -electric and electric vehicle ready. <br />Exceptions/reductions of the offset requirement could potentially be <br />granted to industrial facilities, laboratories, manufacturing, hospitals, and <br />restaurants. <br />• Considerations: <br />• Net zero required. <br />• Offsite PV and Onsite PV required. <br />• Base code efficiency. <br />S <br />
