What is “Zero Net Energy”?
A Zero-Net-Energy Code Building is one where the net amount of energy produced by on-site renewable energy resources is equal to the value of the energy consumed annually by the building, at the level of a single “project” seeking development entitlements and building code permits, measured using the California Energy Commission’s Time Dependent Valuation metric.
California’s ZNE Goals
• All new residential construction will be ZNE by 2020
• All new and 50 percent of existing state-owned public buildings will be ZNE by 2025
• All new commercial buildings will be ZNE by 2030
• 50 percent of existing commercial buildings will be retrofit to Zero Net Energy buildings by 2030
ZNE ROADMAP FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
What policies can spur the market for ZNE buildings?
ZNE ROADMAP FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
www.energycenter.org/zne
1. Officially adopt ZNE goals
2. Create a ZNE task force
3. Enact reach codes or local ordinances that exceed Title 24, Part 6
4. Transform municipal buildings into ZNE buildings
5. Streamline permitting and interconnection processes for energy
efficiency and solar
6. Create or enhance incentives for construction that exceeds Title 24, Part 6
7. Enact PACE financing program(s)

CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE FUTURE
How will electric vehicle charging impact ZNE calculations?
What role will energy storage play in shifting the value of energy consumed?
Will consumers understand that a ZNE building won’t necessarily come with
zero energy bills?
We look forward to your feedback!
