Planning Strategically• Lead the advancement of sustainable building design
and operations• Be a world-class provider of education and certification
programs• Position itself as premier provider of HVAC&R
expertise• Be a global leader in the HVAC&R community• www.ashrae.org/strategicplan
Advanced Energy Design Guidance
• Move industry toward toward net-zero-energy buildings
– Small office buildings– Small retail buildings– K-12 Schools– Warehouses
• www.ashrae.org/aedg
Standards• High-profile standards
published last spring - 90.1, 90.2, 62.1, & 62.2
• Publishing nation’s first standard on green building design-189.1P

Green Building Standard• Standard 189.1P is the
first such green building standard in the US
• Will serve as benchmark for sustainable green buildings – does not apply to all buildings
• Addresses energy, impact on the atmosphere, sustainable sites, water use, materials and resources, and IEQ
Increased Energy Efficiency• Minimum standards not enough for today’s
building environment• Signed agreement with U.S. Department
of Energy in support of higher energy efficiencies
• Goal: achieve zero site energy usage by 2030
Increased Energy Efficiency• Achieving net zero energy usage goal requires
increased stringency for Standard 90.1• Goal for the 2010 standard: achieve 30 percent
energy savings beyond the 2004 standard• Development of 2010 standard will follow
ASHRAE’s consensus writing standards process, which includes numerous opportunities for public review
Building Energy LabelingProvide motivation for reducing energy use in commercial buildings by expressing the energy
performance of buildings in a tangible way
