Alpha Energy Solutions

The Energy Code Compliance & Reporting service is paramount, as it directly connects your technical modeling expertise to the client's need for legal approval, permits, and, most importantly, financial incentives.

This service is the final step that guarantees your partners can monetize the energy efficiency achieved in their projects.

1. Code Path Determination and Strategy

• Service: We analyze the project's location, facility type, and scope to determine the specific, applicable energy codes (e.g., ASHRAE 90.1, IECC) and the most advantageous path to compliance (e.g., prescriptive vs. performance path).
• Value: Ensures the project follows the most efficient legal route, minimizing unnecessary costs and technical documentation.

2. Performance Path Compliance Documentation

• Service: Leveraging the ASHRAE Calibrated Simulation Approach, we generate the precise modeling reports required to prove the proposed design outperforms the code-minimum baseline building.
• Value: This performance-based approach offers greater design flexibility while providing the rigorous proof mandated by advanced codes.

3. Regulatory Forms and Submittal Packages

• Service: We complete and prepare all required compliance forms, reports, and documentation necessary for submittal to the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for permitting. This includes:

1. Energy Code Checklists.
2. Performance Comparison Reports.
3. Savings Calculations Documentation.

• Value: Accelerates the permitting process by providing officials with clear, industry-standard documentation, reducing review cycles and delays.

4. Utility and Rebate Program Reporting (The Guarantee)

• Service: We generate the specific, custom reports required by regional utility programs (like PSEG, NYSERDA, Mass Save, etc.), using output data directly from our DOE-approved simulation tools.
• Value: This service is the key to your business model—it provides the certified documentation needed to support and guarantee rebate approvals, ensuring the client captures maximum financial incentives.

5. LEED and Other Certification Support

• Service: We provide the necessary energy modeling and reporting documentation required for projects pursuing high-performance building certifications (e.g., specific LEED Energy & Atmosphere credits).
• Value: Allows your contractor partners to easily bid on and secure high-value green building projects without needing in-house certification specialists.
