Abstract:

Guiding Principles in the Energy and Water Strategy Decrease Energy waste in all systems, processes, and facilities Increase energy efficiency in all new, replaced, or renovated equipment or facilities Improve energy security by reducing dependence on fossil fuels and increasing production of renewable and alternative energy sources and supplies Reduce wasteful water consumption and Decrease the impact of Energy and Water use on the environment. High-Performance Building Design Principles Eliminate Thermal Bridges Sealed Envelopes .25 cfmsq ft at 0.3 iwg or 75Pa High R-values Roofing, Outer Walls, Stem Wall Passive Solar and ShadingEncased Operational Windows Heat Transfer Intake to Exhaust Automated Controls on all Energy Devices and Radiant heatingcooling.
