Question #
E2.2 – Capital Plan
Question
Are high-cost energy conservation or carbon reduction measures from the assessment included in the capital plan?
Applicability
All asset classes
Owner/landlord occupied building
Tenant occupied building – some or all systems managed by the owner/landlord
Answer & Scoring
Select one of the following:
- Yes = 3 points
- No = 0 points
- Not Applicable – Tenant occupied building: No systems managed by the owner/landlord = 0/0
Max of 3 points
Requirements
The relevant section in the Capital Plan must include:
- A list of capital projects identified through the energy, carbon, and condition assessments
- Evidence of allocation of budget
- Implementation timelines
- Evidence that improvement solutions will achieve energy conservation and carbon reduction
Documentation
- Relevant section of the Capital Plan
Suggested Lead
In-house
Value
- Create a capital plan that outlines the building’s operational and maintenance costs and capital-intensive projects planned at the building over a 10-year timeframe
- Include carbon and energy conservation measures (ECMs and CCMs) and building system upgrades in capital planning
Description
Energy conservation (ECM) and carbon reduction (CRM) measures require capital investment. The capital plan typically outlines building management and operational spending over a 10-year timeframe. Start planning for ECM or CRM implementation early, spreading costs and efforts across multiple years to manage budget expenditures and scale of retrofit projects.
