Zero Energy Ready Strategic Plan
2015-2016
![Page 9: Update on SMCEW: Efforts to reduce energy use and Beacon Program Champion September 10, 2015](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f285503460f94c40b40/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Policy Drivers
• In 2008 California’s first Long Term Energy Efficiency Strategic Plan adopted strict Zero Net Energy construction goals:• All new residential construction will be Zero Net Energy by 2020• All new commercial construction will be Zero Net Energy by 2030• 50% of existing commercial construction will be Zero Net Energy by 2030
• Executive Order B-18-12 requires state buildings to address Zero Energy Ready building for state facilities• 50% of new facilities beginning design after 2020 to be Zero Net Energy• 100% of new State buildings & major renovations beginning design after
2025 to be Zero Net Energy

Policy Drivers
• CPUC Long-term Strategic Plan– Coordinate a Zero Net Energy Project– Promote residential energy efficiency and zero net
energy for large homes– Update the San Mateo County Energy Strategy

SMCEW’s Zero Energy Ready Strategic Plan
Two Themes:
1.Assist cities 2.Educate and support community stakeholders
![Page 12: Update on SMCEW: Efforts to reduce energy use and Beacon Program Champion September 10, 2015](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f285503460f94c40b40/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ZER Strategic Plan Pillars
1. Support Jurisdictions by Developing ZER Action Plan and Policy Templates
2. Nurture Early Adopters and Influence Developing Projects
3. Train Professionals about ZER (builders, architects, designers, real estate professionals)
4. Provide Training and Informational Materials for distribution at Building Departments and to Planning Commissions
![Page 13: Update on SMCEW: Efforts to reduce energy use and Beacon Program Champion September 10, 2015](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f285503460f94c40b40/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1. Support Jurisdictions by developing ZER Action Plan and Policy Templates
Goal 1: Cities develop a ZER Action Plan with three potential elements: 1. Commitment to ZER for all new or majorly remodeled municipal facilities2. Commitment to implement ZER building incentives and to provide education to building applicants in their city3. Commitment to consider developing ZER reach codes for commercialGoal 2: Cities implement ZER Action Plan with assistance from SMCEW
Strategies:•Develop templates (ZER Action Plan, sample language for design/construction RFPs, incentives for building to ZER standards) using current examples (Santa Barbara, Pima County, etc.) and State policy for its own buildings.•Provide “RICAPS style” technical assistance to cities (group coaching and individual consultation using program contractor)

2. Nurture Early Adopters and Influence Developing Projects
Goal 1: 50% of all new or majorly remodeled public buildings are built to ZER by 2025. Goal 2: 50% of all new or majorly remodeled commercial buildings are built to ZER by 2025.
Strategies: •Finalize ZER section of SMCEW website to provide resources for those considering building to ZER•Partner with building departments to identify target ZER opportunities and offer ZER consultations to applicants with building plan submittals (from SMCEW)
![Page 15: Update on SMCEW: Efforts to reduce energy use and Beacon Program Champion September 10, 2015](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f285503460f94c40b40/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
3. Train Professionals about ZER(builders, architects, designers, real estate professionals)
Goal 1: “Early adopters” networking and information groups are established for both building professionals (builders, architects, and designers) and real estate professionals, and increase membership annually. Goal 2: Criteria for being considered a ZER “expert” is established. List of ZER experts is maintained and published and grows annually.
Strategies:•Establish networking and information-sharing groups for both groups of professionals. •Identify key milestones to building professionals to participate in ZER discussions•Host networking sessions•Host ZER tour events featuring building professionals and their work for commercial and residential locations•Work with accreditation organizations to offer continuing education credits- AIA?•Build collaborative relationship with real estate associations with the shared goal of training their members and informing homeowners about the benefits of ZER homes. •Partner with Skyline Community College Center for Sustainable Construction to incorporate ZER into their curriculum•Identify perceived barriers in market today, and with appropriate stakeholders to address them•Host in-person trainings and webinars on ZER topics such as: ZER building science, occupant satisfaction and behavior, financial benefits, and technical feasibility

4. Provide training and info materials to building depts. and planning commissionsGoal: Deliver a ZER Training Presentation to each city’s building department, Planning Commission and Energy Manager
Strategies: •Develop a presentation covering:
– What is ZER?– Ca code changes towards ZER – Examples of local ZER– How SMCEW can support ZER efforts– How they can help their city meet ZER goals
•Develop informational materials and a kiosk to display in Building Departments
![Page 17: Update on SMCEW: Efforts to reduce energy use and Beacon Program Champion September 10, 2015](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f285503460f94c40b40/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Next Steps
• Write up SMCEW’s Zero Energy Ready Strategic Plan based on feedback from:– RMCP – RICAPS Working Group– City Public Works and Planning Departments– Other stakeholders
Consider how it fits into/coordinates with:• San Mateo County Energy Strategy• Other cities’ green building policy• Annual RMCP progress update

2016 PG&E Contracting
• Requesting 15% increase– Transition from Climate Corps to regular staff– ZNE events and pilot projects– CAP updating to 2030– Help with municipal GHG inventories– Support for ZNE action plans
• Negotiating 2-year contract– Oct 5 – Draft contracts to C/CAG for review– Oct 14 – Contracts back to PG&E– Oct 30 – Contract final versions complete, ready for C/CAG Board packet– Nov 12 – MSA/CWA (Contracts) and resolution to C/CAG Board
