ASHRAE TO BEGIN RENOVATION TO CREATE NEW NET-ZERO WORLD HQ BUILDING

ATLANTA (Jan. 15, 2019) – ASHRAE announced board approval of a $15.7 million budget to begin a renovation of its new world

headquarters building in metro Atlanta, Ga., with the intent of being designed for net-zero energy efficiency.

The building located at 180 Technology Parkway in Peachtree Corners, is approximately 10 miles north of ASHRAE’s current location.

The 1970s-era building was selected from existing building stock with a goal of retrofitting it into a modern, high-performance building.

“ASHRAE is excited to demonstrate innovative leadership in our industry by transforming an existing commercial building into a state-

of-the-art built environment,” said 2018-2019 ASHRAE President Sheila J. Hayter. “We want our new world headquarters to be an

example of all that we stand for as a society and all that our industry has to offer. This project will serve as an exemplary model for

other organizations looking to incorporate similar approaches and designs into new and existing facilities across the globe.”

The renovated world headquarters building will provide a technologically updated, cutting edge work space for ASHRAE members,

staff and the public.

“We believe that renovating existing buildings represents the single best opportunity for making a significant impact on sustainability,

resiliency and energy efficiency,” Hayter explained. “Reuse of existing buildings and the embodied carbon in those structures is the

ultimate form of sustainability. Our challenge is to undertake a retrofit process that will address the uniqueness of this building and to

do so cost effectively. This is a significant milestone for our society.”

Goals of the renovation project are:

To upgrade an existing building to operate at a higher sustainability level - anticipating net-zero operation - which may be

substantiated through available certification programs such as LEED, Green Globes, WELL Building or Living Building

Challenge. For this effort, ASHRAE will work to reduce energy consumption to a level below 22 kbtu/sq.ft./year, with a limit

of maximum daytime plug load to 0.5 W/sq.ft.

To exceed ASHRAE standards where possible and economically justifiable, by including ASHRAE Standards 90.1-2016, 62.1-

2016, and 55-2017.

To be a model for reducing the carbon and environmental impacts of business operations in a cost-effective and replicable

way.

The renovation project will be overseen by a committee of ASHRAE volunteers. In addition, a subcommittee of volunteers will advise

on systems and technical components. ASHRAE will move from its current building by October 2020.

ASHRAE PUBLISHES UPDATED RESIDENTIAL, CONSTRUCTION STANDARD

ATLANTA (Jan. 18, 2019) – Increased building activity, operational demands, changes in codes and design and new energy

efficiency strategies were just some of the topics discussed among buildings professionals at the 2019 ASHRAE Winter Conference

and AHR Expo.

The 2019 ASHRAE Winter Conference took place Jan. 12-16 at the Omni Hotel Atlanta at CNN Center and the Georgia World

Congress Center in Atlanta, Ga, ASHRAE’s headquarter city. More than 2,700 individuals registered for this year’s Winter

Conference.

The AHR Expo attracted HVACR professionals from around the globe and provided a forum for manufacturers to showcase the

latest products and services. The Expo drew more than 65,000 attendees, with 1,809 exhibitors total, 496 international exhibitors

from 35 countries and 107 first time exhibitors.

The Winter Conference technical program featured more than 300 presentations, with interest surrounding this year’s new

track, Renewable and Natural Systems, where session topics included exploring energy technologies, renewable energy sources and

the future of the smart grid.

“The Winter Conference and AHR Expo provides an excellent setting for buildings professionals to collaborate on new ideas and

share knowledge,” said 2018-2019 ASHRAE President Sheila J. Hayter, P.E. “As we explore ways to incorporate renewable energy

technologies into integrated building concepts, ASHRAE will take an even greater leadership role in defining the relationship

between buildings and the power sector. The Winter Conference and AHR Expo continues to be one of the most important

platforms through which this knowledge is shared.”

At the conference, Hayter provided Society updates and initiatives related to the Society theme, “Building Our New Energy Future.”

She focused on how ASHRAE is preparing buildings professionals for the challenges and opportunities of designing efficient and grid-

responsive buildings within the changing energy sector. Hayter announced that a workshop, Building our New Energy Future:

Current and Emerging Research Priorities, will be held Feb. 4-5, sponsored by NREL and ASHRAE. Also announced was the release

of a presidential webinar, titled “Efficient Buildings, the Future and a More Intelligent Grid.”

Additionally, “Q&A” videos will be released on The Potential For Zero Energy Districts, Smart Homes–Saving Energy and Money

and Grid-Interactive Buildings.

February 2019 THERMOGRAM

ASHRAE PUBLISHES UPDATED RESIDENTIAL, CONSTRUCTION STANDARD

During the conference, ASHRAE signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Pakistan HVACR Society (PHVACR).

The agreement formalizes the two organizations’ long-standing commitment toward the promotion of common cooling and heating

related endeavors.

ASHRAE and UN Environment announced the launch of its 2019 and 2020 work plan. The new work plan will afford ASHRAE

opportunities to work with local and national policy markets, ensuring sound energy efficiency and environmental protection

policies based on ASHRAE standards and resources. This is the fifth work plan resulting from a 2007 MoU agreement between

ASHRAE and UN Environment.

“The mutual benefit of the new work plan is that ASHRAE has the ability to make key experts in refrigerant development and the

application of new refrigerants accessible to UN Environment, through ASHRAE chapters to provide training to national policy

makers and practitioners in developing countries,” said Hayter. “As the world shifts to use of refrigerants with lower global

warming potential, mandated by the Montreal Protocol, the linkage between ASHRAE and UN Environment’s OzonAction unit is

critically important to meet global challenges.”

ASHRAE recognized outstanding achievements and contributions of dedicated members to the HVACR industry during its Honors

and Awards program. A special presentation was made to H.E. (Barney) Burroughs, presidential Fellow Life Member ASHRAE, for

his 100thASHRAE conference attended.

The slate of nominees for 2019-2020 board officers and directors were announced. Elections will be held in May.

New publications were highlighted including the International Green Construction Code® (IgCC®) powered by

ANSI/ASHRAE/ICC/USGBC/IES Standard 189.1-2017, the newly revised ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.2-2018, Energy-Efficient

Design of Low-Rise Residential Buildings, and the Commissioning Stakeholders’ Guide, among others.

The 2019 ASHRAE Annual Conference will take place June 22-26 in Kansas City, with the 2020 Winter Conference Feb. 1-5, and

the AHR Expo, Feb. 3-5, in Orlando, Fla.

GLOBAL GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS

IPCC Releases Report on the Impacts of Global Warming

On October 6, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change approved a special report entitled “Global Warming of

1.5°C.” This report assesses the impacts of global warming of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, and how those impacts

would change if global warming increased instead to 2°C.

Under the Paris Agreement, countries committed to “Holding the increase in the global average temperature to well

below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-

industrial levels.”

The IPCC report found significant differences between the impacts of global warming of 1.5°C compared with 2°C,

including extreme weather events, sea level rise, and the irreversible loss of ecosystems such as coral reefs.

The report also explained the difficulties of limiting global warming to 1.5°C: “The report finds that limiting global

warming to 1.5°C would require “rapid and far-reaching” transitions in land, energy, industry, buildings, transport, and

cities. Global net human-caused emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) would need to fall by about 45 percent from 2010

levels by 2030, reaching ‘net zero’ around 2050. This means that any remaining emissions would need to be balanced by

removing CO2 from the air.”

Energy Efficiency Day 2018

Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) and Rob Portman (R-OH) introduced a Senate resolution that designated October 5,

2018 as Energy Efficiency Day and recognized the “economic and environmental benefits that have been driven by

private sector innovation and Federal energy efficiency policies put in place over the past 4 decades.” The resolution

had a total of 21 bipartisan cosponsors and passed the Senate unanimously last week.

U.S CONGRESSIONAL ACTIVITIES

116th Congressional Update

The 116th Congress officially convened on January 3rd as roughly 100 new members were sworn in. At the start of the new

Congress, ASHRAE worked with a number of organizations on a letter that encourages the use of energy efficient

infrastructure.

DOE’s EERE and IG Nominees Confirmed

At the end of the 115th Congress, the Senate confirmed Daniel Simmons to lead the Department of Energy’s Office of Energy

Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) and Teri Donaldson as Inspector General.

Senators Introduce State Energy Legislation

Senators Shaheen (D-NH), Collins (R-ME), Reed (D-RI) and Coons (D-DE), have introduced the Investing in State Energy Act. If

enacted, “the bill would require the U.S. Department of Energy to distribute the full annual award amount of U.S. State Energy

Program and Weatherization Assistance Program funds to states no later than 60 days after funds are appropriated by Congress.”
