website / GREEN BUILDING EXECUTIVE ORDER COMPLIANCE

For NM State projects, edi staff members will determine how the Governor's Executive Order impacts a project and what the compliance requirements are. Using the EPA Energy Target Finder, the CBECS Survey data, and other historical data, we determine the baseline (energy target) for the project. The proposed building is then modeled in simulation software and, in collaboration with design team members, modifications are made to elements of the building envelope, lighting plan, and mechanical systems to optimize energy performance and meet the established energy target. Finally, edi will prepare & submit a report to the General Services Dept to ensure compliance with requirements for the 50% energy reduction requirement of the Executive Order.
