NYStretch Energy Code–2020 Stringency Analysis Summary: Local Energy Code (i.e. NYStretch 2020) vs. 2020 ECCC NYS NYSERDA sponsored independent, third-party stringency and cost-effectiveness analyses of the provisions of NYStretch Energy Code 2020 (NYStretch) compared to the 2020 Energy Conservation Construction Code (ECCC NYS). NYStretch is the basis for this Local Energy Code. A summary of the results of those analyses are provided as evidence that the prescriptive and mandatory provisions of this Local Energy Code are expected to yield positive energy savings compared to the baseline 2020 ECCC NYS. NYStretch Energy Code–2020 Stringency Analysis Summary: Local Energy Code (i.e. NYStretch 2020) vs. 2020 ECCC NYS The commercial analysis (Table 1) was prepared by Vidaris, Inc.1 and compares the ASHRAE compliance path of NYStretch to that in the 2020 ECCC NYS. The residential analysis (Table 2) was prepared by Resource Refocus, Inc.2 and compares the IECC compliance path of NYStretch to that of the 2020 ECCC NYS. Table 1. Statewide Average Annual Energy and Cost Savings — Commercial Provisions of NYStretch Compared to the 2020 ECCC NYS1 Total Regulated Site Energy (kBtu/ft2/year) Total Regulated Source Energy (kBtu/ft2/year) Total Energy Costs ($/ft2) Baseline 54.1 129.4 $1.52 2020 NYStretch 51.2 120.7 $1.41 Savings 5.4% 6.7% 7.1% Table 2.
