Hayward’s Zero Net Energy Policy for Municipal Buildings

RICAPS Webinar – September 27, 2016

ZNE Policy

Adopted on May 17, 2016:

All new City buildings and all major

renovations of existing City buildings that

begin design after January 1, 2017, shall be

zero net energy.

ZNE Definition

A Zero Net Energy building is one that

produces as much energy, based on

the value of the energy produced, as it

consumes over the course of a year

Benefits of ZNE Buildings

Energy Independence

Local Resiliency

Healthier Environment

Lower Operating Costs

More Comfortable Living and Working

Spaces

State of California Goals:

all new residential buildings will be ZNE by

2020

all new and 50% of existing state-owned

public buildings will be ZNE by 2025

all new and 50% of existing commercial

buildings will be ZNE by 2030

Existing City Ordinance

Current ordinance requires all new City

building or renovation projects exceeding

20,000 sq. ft. or $5 million to be LEED Silver

certified.

LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental

Design) standards do not require using any

Renewable Energy

General Plan Policies

NR-4.10 Public Renewable Energy Generation

NR-4.11 Green Building Standards

PFS-2.3 Sustainable Practices

PFS-2.7 Energy Efficient Buildings and

Infrastructure

Considerations

Different building types have significantly different

energy use intensity (EUI).

Renovations with tight budgets may prove difficult to

achieve this goal.

The more stories the building has, the more

challenging and expensive ZNE becomes.

Some sites have limited solar power potential.

Extra design and engineering effort = higher costs.

Initial construction costs would increase.

Sustainability Committee

Staff Proposed:

all new City buildings that begin design after 2025

be ZNE

all existing City buildings for which renovations

exceeding 50% of the building’s value and that

begin design after 2025 be ZNE

lesser improvements to existing City buildings should

include efficiencies and technologies that facilitate

achieving ZNE by 2030.

Policy Recommended by

Sustainability Committee &

Approved by Council:

all new municipal buildings designed and

constructed after January 1, 2017 be ZNE

all new and existing municipal buildings for which

renovations exceed 50% of the building’s value

and are designed and constructed after January 1,

2017 be ZNE

lesser improvements to existing municipal buildings

should include efficiencies and technologies that

facilitate achieving Zero Net Energy by 2030

ZNE Policy continued

For buildings where it is not possible to install on-site

renewable energy sufficient to qualify as ZNE, the

building shall be “ZNE Capable”. ZNE Capable

means that the building achieves energy efficiency

performance similar to a ZNE building, but it does

not have sufficient on-site power generation to

qualify as ZNE; and

For buildings where it is not possible or not feasible

to install on-site renewable energy sufficient to

qualify as ZNE, the building or site shall provide as

much renewable energy as is feasible and the

balance of the electrical demand shall be offset

by newly installed renewable energy facilities at

other City-owned properties.

2. 1 ZNE New construction building by 2020

3. 1 ZNE Retrofit building by 2023

2. Stakeholder Mapping and Municipal Building Delivery Process

3. Gap Analysis1. Facility Design Standards

2. Involving operations during design phase

3. Energy Master Plan needs updating

4. RFPs

4. Developing your ZNE Plans- Internal Pathways and Policies1. Revolving fund

5. Developing your ZNE Plans- External Pathways and Policies

Next Steps

1. Set up internal meetings to finish filling out workbook sheets, compile data to back up goals

2. Meet with Department Heads to brief them on goals and data

3. Bring to County Managers Office

4. Bring to Board of Supervisors: Study Session

5. Establish ZNE Taskforce to develop policy documents and

building specifications

Feedback for NBIoMunicipal staff like “getting into the weeds”

oMake it clear the Charrette focuses on one theme- municipal facilities OR community

oNeed more time , even a series of meetings to prevent fatigue
