A consistent definition will allow the industry to coalesce around one vision for a zero-emissions built environment, enabling more consistent policies, incentives, certification targets, and aspirational project goals that will accelerate the essential shift to clean energy. This is in strong alignment with the building sector\u2019s goals for climate action.<\/p>\n<p>A federal definition of a zero-emission building offers significant benefits to the communities that the architecture, engineering, construction, and real estate sectors serve and supports our industry\u2019s emissions drawdown. A uniform definition, verifiable through federal agencies, will unlock more public and private investments in emissions-effective and resilient buildings across a diverse array of real estate.<\/p>\n<p>It is our understanding that the definition targets major operational emissions via three criteria\u2014high energy efficiency, elimination of on-site emissions, and the implementation of building-specific clean energy production. The goal is to impact as many buildings as possible to rapidly reduce operational emissions, which currently account for nearly a third of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. In the future, the definition can be refined to embrace Scope 3 and other emissions related to real estate as measurement and verification of these emissions becomes more standardized.<\/p>\n<p>We commend the administration\u2019s work on this important definition, and we look forward to its formal release. We appreciate Timothy Lock of OPAL and the Building Green Sustainability Leader Peer Networks for coordinating this statement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A coalition of 69 architecture, engineering, and contracting (AEC) firms has shown support for the Biden-Harris Administration\u2019s definition of zero-emissions buildings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29853,"featured_media":207875,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1029],"tags":[3517,9122,2628,552,6722,9229,4602,1362,9230],"class_list":["post-207868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-aec","tag-biden-harris-administration","tag-doe","tag-energy-efficiency","tag-news","tag-opal","tag-us-department-of-energy","tag-white-house","tag-zero-emissions","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
