Scheduled Training Sessions
Commercial Mechanical Provisions of the OCEC (9–10 a.m.):
Learn about the HVAC requirements for typical Oregon buildings and provisions that significantly impact energy use, as we compare the current 2014 OEESPC and the 2019 OCEC.
Building Envelope Requirements of the OCEC (10–11 a.m.):
Get to know the building envelope provisions of the OCEC, including the updated building envelope R-value/U-factor requirements, continuous air barrier requirements and other significant changes from the current OEESPC.
Lighting System Requirements of the OCEC (12–1 p.m.):
Familiarize yourself with the new lighting power density requirements, the new lighting control requirements and how to determine what controls apply to what spaces.
Scope and Application of 2019 OCEC to New and Existing Buildings (1–2 p.m.):
Learn how the commercial provisions of the OCEC apply to new and existing buildings. This is important for code implementation and ultimately achieving energy savings. We’ll also talk about exemptions that apply for new construction, and how the OCEC applies to additions, alterations and repairs.

Bend ADU Market
The number of ADUs being developed in Bend is on the rise thanks to a 2016 measure by the Bend City Council that makes it easier, more predictable, and less expensive for homeowners to build an ADU. More ADUs were developed in 2016 than in any previous year and this Bend Bulletin article shows permit applications are increasing exponentially. Meanwhile, in the summer of 2016, the Oregon Department of Revenue codified some important rules around the proper property taxation treatment of ADUs.

Help Your Clients Make Energy Efficiency Decisions
2019-09-24 09:30 - 10:30 | Webinar
Join Energy Trust of Oregon for this webinar to learn how to help your clients save on energy costs by providing energy-efficient and renewable energy solutions to homebuyers and sellers. This 1-hr class provides brokers with basic understanding of what energy efficiency and high performance means in today’s building industry by examining the leading energy label, EPS (Energy Performance Score), and other Energy Trust of Oregon resources that are available to brokers and consumers in the region. Attendees will also learn about solar PV options and how to help your clients navigate available programs for these renewable energy systems.
According to the 2017 NAR Sustainability Report, 71% of realtors say it’s valuable to promote energy efficiency in home listings. The report demonstrates a growing consumer interest and demand for energy efficient properties which is driving a dialogue between agents and homebuyers and sellers. Are you prepared to meet this increasing client demand and communicate the features and benefits of “high performance”?

Oregon Home Energy Score: A New Statewide Opportunity
2019-09-06 09:30 - 10:30 | Webinar
Join Earth Advantage and the Oregon Association of Realtors for this webinar designed to help real estate professionals understand how the new statewide Oregon Home Energy Score program works and how to leverage it with your clients to help them clearly identify energy costs and upgrade opportunities.
Take advantage of this new voluntary program that can help clients get a Home Energy Score and easily understand energy costs, upgrade options and paybacks.
The Oregon Dept. of Energy’s (ODOE) new Home Energy Score initiative was launched in early 2019 in order to offer a statewide, standardized approach to home energy scoring. A Home Energy Score helps homeowners and homebuyers identify improvements that can make a big difference in energy savings, comfort, health and durability. Providing a Home Energy Score at the time of listing can also give sellers a boost in the current housing market where energy efficiency and renewable energy are highly valued. A score can also help homebuyers – especially first-time buyers – understand how energy bills could affect their budget in a new home.
Attend this webinar and gain a comprehensive overview of the new program and answers to common questions that will help you become the ultimate resource for your clients.

The Oregon Home Energy Score will provide a voluntary framework for homeowners to hire a trained and authorized Home Energy Assessor to perform a Home Energy Assessment and deliver a Home Energy Score. The Home Energy Score was developed by US Dept. of Energy and is currently being used in the City of Portland’s Home Energy Score program. Earth Advantage implements the program on behalf of ODOE and City of Portland by providing Home Energy Assessor training, authorization, and quality assurance services in order to ensure scoring accuracy and consistency across communities. Learn more about the Oregon Home Energy Score program on ODOE’s website, including information about how to find or become an authorized assessor. To locate Oregon homes with energy scores or green certifications, visit us.greenbuildingregistry.com.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Understand the relevance of energy efficiency to home buyers
Learn the ins-and-outs of the Oregon Home Energy Score program
Know how/where to direct clients for a Home Energy Assessment and next steps
