Guiding Principles for Zero Energy Buildings
• Create a standardized basis for identification of ZEBs for use by
industry
• Be capable of being measured and verified, and should be rigorous
and transparent
• Be clear and easy to understand by industry and policy makers
• Zero seen as the pinnacle of energy stewardship—drives owners
and design teams towards excellence
• Influence the design and operation of buildings to substantially
reduce building operational energy consumption
• Set a long-term goal and be durable for some time into the future

Zero Energy Building (ZEB) Concept
Goal 1: Reduce Consumption 50 to 70 percent
Goal 2:
Apply On-site Renewable Energy
BALANCE!

Zero Energy Building (ZEB) Definition
An energy-efficient building, where on a source
energy basis, the actual annual delivered
energy is less than or equal to the on-site
renewable exported energy.

Definition Breakdown – Energy-Efficient Building
An energy-efficient building, where on a source energy basis, the actual annual delivered energy is less than or equal to the on-site renewable exported energy.
The Zero Energy Ready Building
• Energy savings of 50 to 70%
– Triangulation of the savings target (three ways that yield similar results)
• EUI based on solar availability on-site with overlay for efficiency consistencies
• Optimization analysis showing what is possible with effective design decisions
• Penetration of maximum technology
• Market is asking for EUI goals such that they can be zero
– Having an EUI goal drives the owner, design team, and contractors to performance based solutions with measurable results
– Allows the market to be “cost-effective” based on a set of goals

Definition Breakdown – Source Energy Basis
An energy-efficient building, where on a source energy basis, the actual annual
delivered energy is less than or equal to the on-site renewable exported energy.
• Represents the total energy impact of the fuel source including
inefficiencies in the energy extraction and distribution system
• Allows for the comparison of different energy sources
• Method of calculating source from site energy and source to site
energy matter
• Less on-site renewable energy is required to reach zero energy
under source basis than a site basis
• For all-electric buildings, the same amount of renewable energy is
required to reach zero energy under source and site basis
• Allows for CHP comparisons

Methods of Calculating Site and Source Energy
Multiple Options
• Site Energy
• Source - Equal Method (3.15 ratio in and out)
• Source - Consumption (1.00 on all PB)
• Source - Grid Storage (import at 3.15, export at 2.34)

Definition Breakdown – On-Site Renewable
An energy-efficient building, where on a source energy basis, the actual annual delivered energy is
less than or equal to the on-site renewable exported energy.
• Boundary must be specified in where to measure energy flows and the balance
• Boundary vary based on scale of zero energy noun (e.g. building, campus, district)
• For building, boundary could be either building or site footprint
• Districts aggregate buildings to allow for share and/or centralized systems such as CHP and larger scale renewable generation
• Technology and opportunities at every level
– Building/site—owner investments in local EE and RE
– Campus—owner investments
– Districts—incorporates city planning and developer engagement

Benefits of a Standard ZEB Definition
• Provides guidance for a existing market direction
• Shows strong DOE leadership for energy efficiency and the adoption
of technologies
• Provides motivation to the design and construction community to
excel
• Establishes a framework to keep strong focus on operational energy
impacts of buildings (which is still 40% of the energy consumption)

What does ZER look like?
• Generally 50-70% reduction in EUI
• Infrastructure & information to integrate renewables where appropriate
Site energy intensity targets for zero energy (primary school)

• National Renewable Energy Laboratory RSF uses 50% less energy than if it were built to current commercial codes at no extra capital cost
• RSF increases space at NREL by 60% but only increases energy use by 6%
