The 2016 edition contains several important changes to reduce energy consumption that will be of interest to the commercial building design and construction community. An updated edition is published every three years and provides the basis for energy codes adopted by U.S. ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1, known as the Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, is a model standard, developed jointly by ASHRAE and the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IES). Let us know if you have more questions on this topic, otherwise please accept as a solution so that others can benefit from this information.The recent publication of Standard 90.1-2016 marks the latest edition of the Standard, setting the stage for future building energy efficiency requirements in commercial buildings.

We encourage you to add your feature requests to our Idea Station page.ĪSHRAE 90.1-2010 for efficiency. Longer term we plan on implementing ways for you to make your own edits to various parameter settings.
We don't have plans at this time for pre-set code Standard inputs for you to select from.
If other parameters necessary for the energy simulation are not defined in your model, we provide intelligent default based upon other industry recognized references. Strictly speaking, the benchmark result is not the Appendix G reference model (for example we don’t do an average calculations for the four orientations), but other parameters used for the benchmark analysis are based upon your proposed model. We use ASHRAE 90.1 minimum efficiency settings for HVAC efficiency (assuming an HVAC system type based upon ASHRAE 90.1 building size and height categories), envelope thermal properties for your project location’s ASHRAE Climate Zone, and lighting power density for your project’s building type. The ASHRAE 90.1 Benchmark is based upon the 2010 Standards.
