The U.S. Department of Energy has prepared, and made available to the public, a comparison of the commercial provisions found in Chapter 5 of the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code® and ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2007. Drafted by DOE in direct response to questions received from states, the comparison is designed to help states determine if they meet the requirements described in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Section 410, subparagraphs (A) and (B).
The comparison has been posted on the energycodes.gov website and is available at http://www.energycodes.gov/codedevelop/pdfs/90-1_iecc_comparison_final_12-16-2009.pdf. States may choose to reference this comparison in any declarations made to DOE about the energy savings of the codes adopted in their state.
