SUMMARY:2022 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Standards: Introduction to the Performance Approach
DESCRIPTION:Use the 2022 Multifamily Energy Inspection Checklist to practice streamlined inspection of installation scenarios while also targeting top categories of high-value energy savings and impact on compliance. Effective building energy efficiency enforcement is reviewed and practiced as a comprehensive process — from initial consult of building features listed in permitted documentation to review of what contractors document as installed to visual confirmation of these features on-site. This highly interactive online live course is designed to provide Building Inspectors with the essential knowledge and skills they need to more quickly and effectively enforce California’s 2022 Multifamily Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24\, Part 6 or the Energy Code). This course is delivered in two half-day sessions held on two consecutive days. Participants must attend both sessions to complete the course.

SUMMARY:2022 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Standards: Analyzing the CF1R
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Energy Code Ace team for this highly interactive vorkshop (virtual workshop)\, where you’ll have a chance to work in teams and with a whole group to do a “reality check” on the single-family Certificate of Compliance (CF1R) in the context of Title 24\, Part 6. \n\n\n\n\n\nPrerequisites \n\n\n\n\nThis is an intermediate to advanced course. We strongly recommend you have the following before attending this session: \n\nBasic familiarity with Title 24\, Part 6: Residential Building Energy Standards\n\nBasic familiarity with the role of the CF1R and how it’s produced\n\nIf you don’t have these understandings\, you can sign up for the following v-classes: \n\n2022 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Standards for Energy Consultants\n\n2022 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Compliance: Modeling \n\nCOURSE DESCRIPTION\n\nEnergy Consultants\, learn to do a “reality check” on compliance results and troubleshoot common modeling errors as evidenced in the single-family CF1R (Residential Certificate of Compliance). \nThis highly interactive workshop gives everyone who models single-family projects to demonstrate compliance with California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24\, Part 6 or the Energy Code) a chance to work individually and in teams with the performance results from multiple single-family projects and develop an understanding of various project features that affect the overall compliance margin and identify results that are “red flags” for likely problems with the model.   \nCOURSE OBJECTIVES \n\nDescribe the components of the CF1R and the information they convey.\nDescribe what influences the EDR scores.\nGiven a sample project\, provide a rough estimate of what the total compliance margin and magnitude of components should look like.\nDescribe common “error identification” and “troubleshooting techniques” in regard to the CF1R.\nIdentify additional resources and tools provided by Energy Code Ace and the California Energy Commission.\n\nAvailable CEUs:\nAIA (3.0 LU | HSW); ICC (0.3 CEU); CABEC (3 CEUs)

SUMMARY:2022 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Standards: Solar & Battery Storage
DESCRIPTION:Roll-up-your-sleeves and work with expert instructors and your colleagues to develop recommendations regarding solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery-storage systems that meet the Energy Code for single-family and low-rise multifamily buildings. \n\n\n\n\nPrerequisites \n\n\n\n\nThis is an intermediate to advanced course. We strongly recommend you complete the following before attending this session: \n\nOnline Self-Study: 2019 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials on Demand — Residential Standards & Technology: Solar SystemsA new version of this online self-study course is currently under development\, and should be available later this year.\nIn the meantime\, the above course is a useful orientation to key concepts and terminology that will be used in the online live class.\n\n\n\nWeigh the pros and cons of alternative approaches to achieving energy efficiency and meeting the California’s 2022 Single-family Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24\, Part 6 or the Energy Code). Select the approach that makes best sense given client preferences and other project parameters. \nThis course is desiged for Energy Consultants\, Architects and Designers and focuses on how to apply the 2022 Energy Code specific to Solar Photovoltaic (PV) and battery-storage systems in single-family and low-rise multifamily new construction. \nWe’ll start with the basics and then explore key lessons from the field that you’ll likely encounter. Throughout the course you’ll be working with real life projects to determine the appropriate PV and battery requirements. \nCOURSE OBJECTIVES \n\nExplain key Solar Photovoltaic (PV) and battery storage concepts\nDetermine the requirements for the Solar Photovoltaic (PV) area for a single family and low-rise multifamily new construction project\nDetermine how to use the battery storage credit to meet project requirements\nModify PV and battery requirements on a project given exceptions and real-life obstacles\n\nAvailable CEUs:\nAIA (3.0 LU | HSW); ICC (0.3 CEU); CABEC (3 CEUs)
