Abstract

ABSTRACT The intent of this article is to offer a convenient list of strategic guidelines to help steer new building designs toward energy efficiency. It is hoped that the project owner, interested in achieving greater than average savings, will provide this list to the design team as part of their project intent instructions. To encourage its use and acceptance, emphasis is placed on keeping the list at a manageable size, with only proven solutions. Through a top-down approach, using this document as a convenient tool, building owners can set the expectations of energy frugality, create positive changes in building practices, and reward themselves with operational savings.
