Go to top STATE OF NEW YORK ________________________________________________________________________ 6255 2017-2018 Regular Sessions IN ASSEMBLY March 1, 2017 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. WALKER -- read once and referred to the Committee on Energy AN ACT to authorize the New York state energy research and development authority to study significantly improving high-performance efficiency in commercial office buildings The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem- bly, do enact as follows: 1 Section 1. Definitions. For purposes of this act, the following terms 2 shall have the following meanings: (a) "Authority" shall mean the New 3 York state energy research and development authority. 4 (b) "Chair" shall mean the chair of the New York state energy research 5 and development authority. 6 (c) "Commercial office building" shall mean buildings used for general 7 office space, a professional office, or administrative office including: 8 (i) professional offices; (ii) administrative offices; (iii) govern- 9 mental offices; (iv) mixed-use offices; (v) banks or other financial 10 institutions; (vi) medical offices which do not use diagnostic medical 11 equipment; (vii) sales offices; (viii) contractor's offices, including 12 but not limited to construction, plumbing and HVAC; (ix) not-for-profit 13 or social services offices; (x) city hall or city center; and (xi) call 14 center or data center. 15 (d) "Separate spaces" shall mean areas within a commercial office 16 building that are leased or otherwise occupied by a tenant or other 17 occupant for a period of time pursuant to the terms of a written agree- 18 ment. 19 (e) "High-performance efficiency measures" which shall mean (i) "cost 20 effective energy efficiency measures", which shall include any building 21 product, material, equipment or service, and the installation, implemen- 22 tation, or operation thereof, that provides energy savings in an amount 23 that is not less than the cost of such installation, implementation or 24 operation; and/or (ii) "cost effective water efficiency measure" which 25 shall include any building product, material, equipment, or service and 26 the installation, implementation, or operation thereof, that provides EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD06196-01-7A. 6255 2 1 water savings in an amount that is not less than the cost of such 2 installation, implementation, or operation. 3 § 2. No later than one year following the effective date of this act, 4 the authority shall complete a study on the feasibility of: 5 (a) significantly improving energy efficiency in commercial buildings 6 through the design and construction, by owners and tenants, of separate 7 spaces with high-performance efficiency measures; 8 (b) encouraging owners and tenants to implement high-performance effi- 9 ciency measures in separate spaces; and 10 (c) encouraging the cooperation of commercial office buildings in 11 aggregating electrical load and usage utilizing demand response 12 programs, whether utility-based or operated by the federally designated 13 bulk system operator charged with maintaining the state's high-voltage 14 transmission system. 15 § 3. The study required by section two of this act, shall, at a mini- 16 mum, include descriptions of: 17 (a) High-performance efficiency measures that should be considered as 18 part of the initial design and construction of separate spaces; 19 (b) Processes that owners, tenants, architects and engineers may 20 replicate when designing and constructing separate spaces with high-per- 21 formance efficiency measures; 22 (c) Policies and best practices to achieve reductions in energy inten- 23 sities for lighting, plug loads, heating, cooling, cooking, laundry and 24 other systems to satisfy the needs of the commercial building tenant; 25 (d) Return on investment and payback analyses of the incremental cost 26 and projected energy savings of the proposed set of high-performance 27 efficiency measures, including consideration of available incentives; 28 (e) Models and simulation methods that predict the quantity of energy 29 used by separate spaces with high-performance efficiency measures and 30 that compare that predicted quantity to the quantity of energy used by 31 separate spaces without high-performance efficiency measures but that 32 otherwise comply with applicable building code requirements; 33 (f) Measurement and verification platforms demonstrating actual energy 34 use of high-performance efficiency measures installed in separate spac- 35 es, and whether such measures generate the savings intended in the 36 initial design and construction of the separate spaces; 37 (g) Best practices that encourage an integrated approach to designing 38 and constructing separate spaces to perform at optimum energy efficiency 39 in conjunction with the central systems of a commercial building; 40 (h) Any impact on employment resulting from the design and 41 construction of separate spaces with high-performance efficiency meas- 42 ures; and 43 (i) The ability of owners of commercial office buildings to cooperate 44 in managing electric load to reduce peak-time demand. 45 § 4. The authority shall consult with the public service commission, 46 the federally designated bulk system operator and electric corporations 47 and public power authorities operating in New York on their findings. 48 The authority may incorporate data from relevant federal agencies, 49 including information provided in the most recent Commercial Buildings 50 Energy Consumption Survey published by the U.S. Energy Information 51 Administration, into such findings. 52 § 5. Copies of the study, as required by section two of this act, 53 shall be provided to the temporary president of the senate, the chair of 54 the senate committee on energy and telecommunications, the speaker of 55 the assembly, and the chair of the assembly committee on energy. 56 § 6. This act shall take effect immediately.
