[CBPS] FW: Clean Buildings Bulletin

Commerce has finally announced the decarbonization plan registration, although the deadline is a bit confusing. It was June 30 of this year, but the email below states 2025. I’m checking for clarification on that. I suspect it’s a typo.

Anyone still working on their report can reach out for assistance if needed.

Also note the Office Hours. Form F training, and Smart Building Exchange, which may be of value for some of you.

District Energy Systems: Opt-in or notify Commerce of your participation
Washington is leading the nation with existing building performance standards. The legislature recognizes that building decarbonization is necessary to achieve the state's climate goals. Thus, expanding the state’s building performance standard to include decarbonizing district energy systems in House Bill (HB) 1390<https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Flawfilesext.leg.wa.gov%2Fbiennium%2F2023-24%2FPdf%2FBills%2FHouse%2520Passed%2520Legislature%2F1390-S2.PL.pdf%3Fq=20230511075520/1/010101905512692b-c1f643d4-1153-4313-a2fc-d13541e1ad1c-000000/QQE4jWoC4gKQZ6A1xqzJNwgBdGgTX7XqyC5NPtjL1q0=359>.
Decarbonization plans are mandatory for state campus district energy system and optional for campus district energy system.
A state campus district energy system is a district energy system that provides heating, cooling, or heating and cooling to a campus through a distributed system providing steam, hot water, or cool water to five (5) or more buildings with more than 100,000 square feet of combined conditioned space, where the system and all buildings connected to the system are owned by:

  1.  The state of Washington; or
  2.  A public-private partnership including one public building owner and one private entity.
A campus district energy system is a district energy system that provides heating, cooling, or heating and cooling to a campus through a distributed system providing steam, hot water, or cool water to three (3) or more buildings with more than 100,000 square feet of combined conditioned space, where the system and all buildings connected to the system are owned by:

  1.  A single entity;
  2.  A public-private partnership in which a private entity owns the systems providing heating, cooling, or heating and cooling to buildings owned by one public entity; or
  3.  Two private entities in which one private entity owns the buildings connected to the system and another private entity owns the system providing heating, cooling, or heating and cooling to the buildings.
To opt-in or notify Commerce of your participation, register your buildings connected to a district energy system by completing this registration form<https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fapp.smartsheet.com%2Fb%2Fform%2F83fde26d418e4e61986038f0fc66c766/1/010101905512692b-c1f643d4-1153-4313-a2fc-d13541e1ad1c-000000/VHAMMRWLYZ0DXbwpy2R9VbAwTv8GUT-mp2sAFQrPf40=359>.
