This presentation will offer a comprehensive overview of stretch energy codes and how they relate to existing buildings. It will cover key topics, such as the conditions under which the Stretch Code mandates enclosure upgrades during renovations and the process for calculating thermal enclosure performance.
The presenters will provide a clear explanation of Stretch Energy Codes, when they apply to existing buildings, the types of projects affected, and various compliance pathways. Additionally, design considerations and case studies will demonstrate practical applications. The presentation will underscore how Stretch Energy Codes drive energy efficiency, foster the adoption of future building practices, and support jurisdictions in meeting ambitious goals for energy savings and emissions reduction.
