Understanding the WA Clean Buildings Standard

January 10, 2022 By Building Potential staff

The Clean Buildings Standard is one measure Washington State is taking to improve building operational efficiency. Propelling buildings to targeted energy use intensity by building type and size, all commercial buildings over 50,000 sf will need to comply by 2028 (220,000 sf by 2026), and then maintain compliance or be subject to penalties.

UMC, Hargis Engineers, and the Northwest Energy Efficiency Council (NEEC) have joined forces to break down the Clean Buildings Standard’s Ā options and implications so you can define a path forward that aligns with your portfolio. [AIA CEU HSW 1.5 Credit]
