Unlocking Energy Efficiency: Join the DOE’s Energy Code Webinar Series
This monthly webinar series will provide an opportunity to learn, discuss and engage on timely and important energy code topics throughout the year.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Building Energy Codes Program (BECP) is hosting a 2023-2024 Energy Code Webinar Series which will cover a variety of special topics of interest to all energy code stakeholders for both residential and commercial buildings.
This monthly webinar series, regularly scheduled for the third Thursday of every month at 1:00 PM EST, will provide an opportunity to learn, discuss and engage on timely and important energy code topics throughout the year.
Each monthly webinar will be presented across a range of engaging formats, from topic-based lectures to expert panels and interactive discussions.
The remaining lineup of topics over the next few months include:
- What You Need to Know about the New Energy Standard for Commercial Buildings: ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2022 | November 16th (Register)
- Best Practices for Understanding and Improving Compliance: Field Studies, Circuit Riders, and More | January 18th (Register)
- Addressing Existing Buildings: Building Performance Standards and Implementation Support Tools | February 15th (Register)
- Energy Code Enforcement Challenges and Opportunities in Rural Communities | March 21st (Register)
You can register for each webinar and access presentation slides, here.
DOE Building Energy Codes Program
The BECP is a government initiative that focuses on improving the energy efficiency of buildings through the establishment and implementation of up-to-date energy codes and standards.
The program’s primary goal is to promote the adoption of energy-efficient building codes and practices to reduce energy usage, lower greenhouse gas emissions and enhance overall building performance.
U.S. federal grant programs are available to assist state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) governments in implementing solutions to help reduce energy-related emissions and enhance resiliency and sustainability.
The International Code Council stands ready to work with SLTT governments to access these funds. Learn more, here.
