DOE Activities and Methodology for
Assessing Compliance With Building
Energy Codes
Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy, Department of
Energy.
ACTION: Request for information (RFI).
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) is soliciting public input
on the methodology developed by DOE
to assist in assessing compliance with
building energy codes at the local, state,
and national levels. To provide
technical assistance for states
implementing building energy codes,
DOE developed and piloted a
compliance methodology across several
U.S. states. The experiences of those
participating in these pilot studies have
led to a number of recommendations
and potential changes to the DOE
methodology. DOE is interested in
receiving broad public input on not only
this methodology, but also on
fundamental assumptions and
approaches to measuring compliance
with building energy codes. This notice
identifies several areas in which DOE is
particularly interested in receiving
information; however, any input and
suggestions considered relevant to the
topic are welcome.
DATES: Written comments and
information are requested on or before
September 5, 2013.
