Common use of Energy Conservation Specifications Clause in Contracts

Energy Conservation Specifications. Technological advances in energy conservation devices such as Lighting and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC), enable additional energy savings over that required by the State of California's Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6 of the California Code of Regulations). The Design Professional shall model the energy performance of the building using an acceptable computer model such as Energy Pro, EQuest, DOE-2, Power XXX, XXX 3.22, etc. and present the summary data to the City at or prior to 100 percent design. This analysis should include life cycle cost analysis showing recovery of construction costs through operation and maintenance costs (e.g., electricity and gas savings.) The Design Professional shall prepare a cost savings matrix that lists each device being considered and one, three, five and ten-year Project savings. The comparison shall include, but not be limited to, the following equipment: Lighting, HVAC, Water Heating, and Motors. The Design Professional shall contact the SDG&E New Construction Program at (000) 000-0000 or the San Diego Regional Energy Office at (000) 000-0000 to integrate them into the design process to ensure maximum energy performance and access to technical resources. Design Professional shall endeavor to obtain from SDG&E a UTIL-1 (Utility Incentive Worksheet) to estimate energy savings and incentives available based on the design team energy modeling.
