Inside Appendix Z
Net-Zero Energy Compliance
Sep 19, 2024
Join Interface Engineering, for an informative presentation on the District of Columbia’s Net-Zero Energy compliance pathway to the Energy Conservation Code - Appendix Z.
The seminar will clarify the requirements of Appendix Z and the pathway to compliance, focusing on the understanding and practical application for DC-funded projects and soon to be mandatory Net-Zero Energy (NZE) and electrification code for all commercial and multifamily buildings.
A compelling Net-Zero Energy Design case study will be offered for Thomas Elementary School, highlighting both the opportunities and challenges associated with the design, permitting, construction and commissioning of Net-Zero Energy projects.
Inside Appendix Z: Net-Zero Energy Compliance will be presented by Managing Principal, Roger Frechette III, PE and Associate Principal, Culai Silitra, PE.
