Goal 1: Zero Net Energy
- Measure: building energy consumption & generation (kBtu)
- Targets:
- minimally acceptable value: net zero site energy
- desired / target value: net zero source energy
- Strategies:
- rooftop solar
- heat pumps
- passive solar
- efficient appliances (Energy STAR), lighting fixtures, etc.
- daylighting
- daylight and motion sensors
Goal 2: Low Embodied Carbon
- Measure: kg CO2 eq
- LCA
- EC3
- Targets:
- minimally acceptable value: 10% below baseline design
- desired / target value: 30% below baseline design
- Strategies:
- mass timber as a structural component
- rapidly renewable or recycled materials when possible
- local materials
- reduced slab thickness (if site permits)
- alternative insulation materials
Goal 3: Occupant Comfort
- Measure:
- biophilic design & views
- thermal comfort (CBE thermal comfort tool)
- ventilation (cfm/person)
- Targets:
- minimally acceptable value:
- views from >50% of the building
- complies with ASHRAE standard 55
- 15 cfm/person
- desired / target value
- views from >70% of the building
- 30 cfm/person
- Strategies:
- mass timber also adds a biophilic element
- incorporation of greenery both inside and outside with windows overlooking
- thermal mass
- natural ventilation
- low emitting materials
- daylighting
- operable windows
