The Role of Building Codes and Controls in Enhancing Community Resilience

Countries, states, and cities around the world are seeking to enhance power sector resilience through a combination of policy and technology. However, few of these efforts fully incorporate the built environment into power sector planning. Buildings account for more than a third of the global annual energy consumption and more than 60% of the annual electricity consumption. As such, buildings play a critical role in enhancing resilience in the power sector. Buildings can aid in power sector resilience by increasing power system flexibility, shaving and shifting demand, and providing on-site energy generation. All of these strategies require incentives to encourage participation. This paper presents an overview of energy management strategies to better incorporate building design and operation in power sector resilience planning.

U.S. Building Codes and Standards: Update on Changes

Harnessing and adapting new technologies and research enables us to create a future where the built environment is healthier, more comfortable and more energy efficient, thus producing a more sustainable world. ASHRAE is able to make these contributions because of the dedication of our members, which currently is about 56,500 people globally, and that is a number we hope continues to grow. ASHRAE partners with many organizations to develop and implement impactful standards for maintaining and building a sustainable environment. These standards are designed to help make buildings more efficient and to provide best practices and resources for industry professionals.
