California’s new Title 24 energy code compliance date pushed back to July 1, 2014

Due to the stringency of the provisions in California’s new Title 24 energy codes, their implementation has been postponed until July 1, 2014 to allow jurisdictions and engineers to prepare for them.

California is striving for newly constructed commercial buildings to achieve zero net energy by 2030. The updated energy efficiency standards to meet this goal will have a substantial impact on how owners design and construct their buildings.
