2011 Austin Energy Green Building Annual Report

Celebrating 20 Years of
Green Building
AUSTIN ENERGY GREEN BUILDING > 2011 ANNUAL REPORT
CONTENTS
In 2011, we marked the 20th anniversary of Austin Energy Green Building. It was a memorable year: We celebrated milestones, accepted awards and reflected on how far we have
come in the past two decades in Austin. Our energy code is one of the most advanced in the
country. Green building is the standard for affordable housing in Austin. Thanks to demand
for green buildings and a market that can deliver them, high-achieving commercial, multifamily and single family projects have helped form Austin’s skyline and neighborhoods.
This annual report commemorates the people and projects that have made Austin a green
building and sustainability capital over the last 20 years—and begins to define our goals
for the next 20.

2011 ANNUAL REPORT • 20 YEARS > 01
BEGINNINGS
Austin Energy Green Building built on the success of the
Austin Energy Star program, the work being done in sustainable building practices at the Center for Maximum
Potential Building Systems (CMPBS) and by others in the
design and construction industry.
The Advanced Green
Builder Demonstration,
located at the CMPBS
campus, features numerous sustainable building
The late 1980s were a boom time for development and a period when many
citizens of Austin grew concerned about balancing growth and the environment, a concern evolved from a decades-old culture of environmental
awareness and activism centered on safeguarding Barton Springs and our
natural environment. City energy and water conservation programs had
been established in the early part of the decade and Austin adopted its
first energy code. Austin Energy Star established a new model for improving building energy efficiency by partnering with builders to help them use
a tiered energy efficiency evaluation tool instead of simply offering cash
incentives or enforcing codes.

and spatial flexibility.
In this climate of growing concern for sustainability, Pliny Fisk III, Michael
Myers, Doug Seiter and Gail Vittori conceived the idea for a green rating
for buildings during a CMPBS brainstorming session in 1989. A grant of
$50,000 was secured from the U.S. Department of Energy to develop a
02 > AUSTIN ENERGY GREEN BUILDING
guide to single family residential
green building. Later, other grants
provided funding for the development of the residential green
building rating and to support the
first program staff, Mary McLeod
and Laurence Doxsey.
The concept of a city-operated
green building program that
worked with builders and designers to improve the sustainability
of their buildings was so innovative and powerful that it became
a model for other cities, including
Scottsdale, Atlanta, Denver, King
County and Portland. The program
also served as the model for the
U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED
certification system.
PARTNERSHIPS
Our mission, to lead the transformation of the building
industry to a sustainable future, cannot be achieved
without industry and community partners.
CITY OF AUSTIN
Some of our most powerful partnerships and collaborations are
with other City of Austin departments. We have always worked
closely with Planning and Development Review and Watershed
Protection to achieve goals related
to energy code compliance, green
building, water quality and storm
water standards. Since 1994, we
have collaborated with Public
Works to establish green building
standards for municipal buildings.
Austin Resource Recovery and
Austin Water have been invaluable
allies in supporting construction
waste diversion, water conservation and rainwater harvesting
practices. Neighborhood Housing
and Community Development
helped establish green building
standards for all city-supported
affordable housing in Austin.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Austin Energy Green Building collaborated with the International
Code Council to develop code
updates and the new International Green Construction Code
and we partnered with Texas A&M
University to develop the Texas
Climate Vision energy code compliance calculator. The students
and faculty of the Schools of Architecture and Engineering at the
University of Texas at Austin have
been valuable resources, volunteering their time and expertise
for our professional development
seminars and special projects. Our
partnership with the Pecan Street
Project, first in developing the
vision and now advising on their
U.S. Department of Energy smart
grid grant, is evidence of our commitment to coupling design with
emerging technologies.
OUTREACH & EDUCATION
Local and national organizations are critical to bolstering our
education and outreach efforts.
We have hosted national conferences with the U.S. Green Building
Council, Affordable Comfort, Inc.
(ACI) and the National Association of Home Builders. Locally, we
have co-hosted events with and
supported the U.S. Green Building
Council Central Texas-Balcones
Chapter and the American Institute of Architects Austin Chapter.
We have stayed connected to
the natural building community
through our partnership with
Design-Build-Live. Austin Community College was an important
partner during our founding years
and we continue to contribute
to the education of new building
professionals by serving on the
Building Construction Technology
Advisory Board.

AFFORDABILITY
Green, affordable housing has been one of our most significant achievements. In the early
days, it seemed that “green” and “affordable” buildings were mutually exclusive. The conventional wisdom surrounding affordable housing was that initial cost was the most important
consideration. Many assumed green building was so expensive, it could only be used in highend custom homes.
These five-star homes
by Casa Verde Builders (right, interior and
exterior) and Habitat for
In Austin, we understood that to have a real impact on the built environment and people’s lives, green building would have to be accessible to
all. The 1992 Green Habitat Learning Project was the first demonstration
of a green, affordable home in Austin. It was truly a collaborative effort:
The home was designed by volunteers recruited by Austin Energy Green
Building and built by at-risk youth enrolled at the American Institute for
Learning on land owned by Habitat for Humanity. It featured an insulated
concrete form system, stained concrete floors and a combination heating
and cooling system using the home’s water heater as the heat source. This
project led to the development of Casa Verde Builders, an award-winning
American YouthWorks program that employs at-risk young adults to build
green homes for low-income families while working toward their high
school diplomas.

building features such

and landscaping, passive

sized equipment.
Casa Verde Builders, Habitat for Humanity and private sector builders and
designers went on to prove that green, affordable housing was not only
feasible but cost-effective. Building on these successes, the City of Austin
Neighborhood Housing and Community Development office and Austin
Energy Green Building developed an agreement under which all housing
receiving City of Austin incentives were required to achieve a green
building rating. The S.M.A.R.T. Housing (Safe, Mixed-Income, Accessible,
04 > AUSTIN ENERGY GREEN BUILDING
Reasonably-Priced, Transit-Oriented) program, developed in
2000, is one of the most recognized products of this agreement.
Many of these developments are
multifamily housing, which has
made green affordable housing
units even more accessible.
Today, thanks in large part to the
green affordable housing initiatives
in Austin, the initial-cost attitude
has been replaced by a focus on
cost over the lifetime of a building.
This allows developers, designers and builders to build homes
that are affordable not just to buy
but also to live in. Healthier homes
with lower energy and water costs
are now more widely available to
those who need them the most.
EQUITY
Social equity has been an integral
part of our mission and work since
our early involvement with green
affordable housing development in
Austin. We took a more deliberate
approach to making social equity
an explicit part of our mission and
activities in 2009, when we began
evaluating our ratings to identify
how they impacted social equity.
At the same time, the Austin City
Council was working to improve
conditions for Austin construction
workers by developing new regulations for water and rest breaks. We
partnered with the Austin-based
Workers Defense Project, a nonprofit dedicated to advocating
for worker safety and compensation. One of the results of this
partnership was the development
of a pilot innovation point toward
a green building rating that participants could earn by adhering
to the Workers Defense Project
Premier Community Builder
Agreement, a legal contract that
provides a framework for fair
treatment of construction workers. In large part because of the integration
of the contract into the Austin Energy Green Building rating process, the
Workers Defense Project was awarded a Rockefeller Grant to continue the
agreement and support its outreach efforts.
In 2010, we formalized our dedication to improving equity even further by
creating an equity category in our multifamily building rating. The rating
now awards points for affordable housing provision, access to transportation and providing computer lab access to residents of low-income housing
developments.
As we continue to improve our approach, we plan to quantify successes in
the area of equity, perhaps in terms of affordability impacts, reduced health
care costs, reduced construction site injuries and other measures. We will
build partnerships and develop more points in our ratings to encourage
project teams to include contributions to social equity in their plans. As
part of our education efforts, we also hope to support bilingual education
programs so local construction workers can gain critical green building
skills, resulting in more job opportunities.
© Jason Cato, Workers Defense Project
Environmental preservation and economic viability
are just two parts of the
sustainability story. The
last critical piece has to
do with working toward
greater social equity—
ensuring all people have
access to a fair share of economic and environmental
resources.
2011 ANNUAL REPORT • 20 YEARS > 05
EDUCATION
An important part of our mission has always been to educate building professionals and
the public about the myriad benefits of green buildings for people, the environment and the
economy. Our educational activities have taken the form of events and conferences, print
and web materials and expert technical assistance.
One of our first major publications was the Sustainable Building
Sourcebook, a reference manual
compiling a wide range of information on building materials and
techniques, such as construction
waste management, daylighting
and alternative building systems.
The first manual of its kind in the
nation, the Sourcebook was the
most-visited part of our website
for more than a decade, gaining
recognition from international professionals and curious local citizens
alike. During this same time period,
we hosted several of the first green building conferences in the U.S. These
gatherings of the national green building community were so successful,
drawing such high numbers of attendees, that Austin was the natural pick
for the location of the first U.S. Green Building Council Greenbuild conference in 2002.
Since 1996, our free, monthly professional development seminars have
relied upon experts to educate local professionals on a wide range of sustainable building topics. In 2001, we created Green by Design, a daylong
residential green building workshop aimed at homeowners and green
building novices. This workshop on designing and building for the hot
and humid Central Texas climate has been in many ways the public “face”
of Austin Energy Green Building, bringing members of the community
together with our team and sponsors. The Cool House Tour, produced in
partnership with the Texas Solar Energy Society for more than 15 years,
is one of the most popular sustainable home tours in the country, with an
average 2,000 attendees each year.
Our education offerings continue to grow. Since 2009, we have partnered with the Home Builders Association of Greater Austin and, later, the
National Association of The Remodeling Industry to offer the Green Boots
series, a multi-session educational program designed specifically for single
family residential trade contractors. The program has grown each year,
with 53 building trade contractors and professionals attending at least one
session and 26 Green Boots graduates attending a full course of sessions in
2011. As part of the 2011 TEDxAustin Experience Lab, we created an interactive green building tour of the Austin Music Hall. To participate in the tour,
tech-savvy attendees used their smartphones to scan Quick Reference
codes around the building to access 10 original video segments on green
building features.

We are always looking for ways to make our programs more accessible
to the public. In 2011, we began posting videos of our monthly professional development seminars online. In the future, we plan to offer these
recordings as webinars for continuing education credits. These seminars
help building professionals keep pace with the latest innovations in the
field, such as energy modeling, performance commissioning, LED lighting,
advanced HVAC systems and home automation systems.

JOBS
Job creation and workforce development have always been a top priority for Austin Energy
Green Building. By creating demand for better buildings through our rating system,
we drive the market for green buildings, which in turn creates opportunities for green
building professionals.
Soon after we introduced this
requirement, a local contractor who specialized in cleaning
construction sites decided that
with a small amount of assistance
he could make a business out
of construction waste diversion.
We worked with this contractor
to help him secure a city-owned
site where construction waste
could be sorted, providing a very
important resource to contractors
working toward an Austin Energy
Green Building rating. Other
entrepreneurs saw the possibilities and today our construction
waste management resource
list shows 29 haulers providing
diversion services and 50 businesses that recycle construction
waste. The practice has become so
widespread that Austin Resource
Recovery is now developing a
plan to institutionalize construction waste diversion throughout
the city.
worked to encourage development in the energy modeling and
building commissioning industries.
As building owners demand more
information about life cycle costs
versus initial costs, there will be
opportunities for experts in economic and cost-benefit analysis.
The Austin Energy Green Building rating system is a mark of
quality that sets healthy, sustainable buildings apart. Through the
development of our rating system,
we aim to drive market transformation and continue to create
exciting opportunities for green
building professionals.

more sustainable buildings require
more sophisticated design and
construction processes, we have

Garden, that specialize in

materials.

One of our most influential
achievements has been our
success in helping create a market
for construction waste diversion
services. In 2001 and 2002, we
recognized that unless construction waste could be used onsite as
mulch or fill, there were few alternatives to trucking it to the landfill
in Austin. We saw an opportunity
to drive demand for more services
by making construction waste
diversion a basic requirement for
our commercial building rating.

The Austin metropolitan area population has doubled since Austin Energy Green Building created the first residential rating tool in 1991 and is predicted to double again by 2030. Resource conservation makes it possible to
enjoy the benefits of a growing economy while preserving the natural resources and unique neighborhoods that
make Austin a place we love to live. At Austin Energy Green Building, we count resource savings in terms of energy,
demand, water and construction waste diverted from the landfill. The chart below presents our savings in the
context of points of reference recognizable to Austinites, such as Barton Springs Pool and Austin City Hall.

CONNECTIONS
Austin Energy Green
Building has had an important presence on the web
throughout our history.
In the early days, we
debuted the first website
of any program at the City
of Austin, which was the
online home to the Sustainable Building Sourcebook.
With Toughbook computers, teams can consult on
site and update construction project ratings in
real time using the Austin
Energy Green Building
In 2010, we launched our new
online rating system. This platform
serves as a repository for project
documentation including drawings, specifications, submittals
and resource savings calculators.
It streamlines communication
with all members of a project,
allowing us to easily answer
questions and quickly provide
reference materials. Ultimately,
we will use the system to generate case studies of outstanding
projects for our website, track our

online rating system.
The high-traffic Sourcebook filled
a national need, as it was one of
very few online green building
resources. The site also housed a
local directory, where Austinites
could search for builders, designers, contractors and other profes-
sionals who had participated in
at least one Austin Energy Green
Building rated project.

accomplishments, guide rating
developments and make the public
benefits of green buildings more
transparent.
As our networks strengthen, we
are maximizing our online communications for information sharing.
Our website will soon feature
additional links to sustainability
partners and resources. We are
also cultivating more social media
connections to market green buildings, share news, feature events
and build our online community.
AWARDS
Over the past twenty years, Austin Energy Green Building has received many awards recognizing our dedicated service and contribution to the green building industry locally as well
as globally.
In 1992, just months after creating the first residential green building rating
tool, we won the Local Government Honours Award for innovative local
environmental programs at the United Nations Conference on Environment
and Development in Rio de Janeiro.
In 2011, nearly two decades after our first United Nations award, the
United Nations Human Settlements Programme selected Austin Energy
Green Building as the only U.S. initiative to receive the Scroll of Honour,
fulfilling and building on the promise of the 1992 award. The Scroll of
Honour is considered the most prestigious human settlements award in
the world, recognizing outstanding contributions in fields such as shelter
provision, leadership in post-conflict reconstruction and improving the
quality of urban life.
Austin Energy Green Building has
been recognized many other times
over the years, winning the Public
Sector Leadership Award from
the U.S. Green Building Council,
the National Association of Home
Builders’ Outstanding Green Building Program Award, recognition
from the American Council for an
Energy Efficient Economy and a
host of regional awards.
