本文将回顾一个大型可复制净零能耗（ZEB）办公楼的新型采购、收购和合同流程。业主（同时也是商业建筑能效研究人员）开发并实施了基于能源性能的设计-建造流程，以采购一栋22万平方英尺的办公楼，满足合同要求，以满足需求侧能源和LEED目标。我们将概述使用可复制交付流程确保实现能效和ZEB目标所需的关键采购步骤。制定明确、全面的建议书征询书（RFP），其中包括具体、可测量的能源使用强度目标，对于确保以成本效益高的方式实现能源目标至关重要。 RFP包括一项合同要求，以满足25 kBtu/ft2的绝对需求侧能源使用要求，以及关于包括哪些负载的具体计算方法，如何根据提高的空间效率和数据中心分配、特定的插头负载和时间表，规范化能源目标，以及如何计算校园热水和冷水供应所用能源的计算细节。RFP还规定了延伸目标，如达到净零能耗。将能源需求纳入该采购流程的其他优势包括利用自愿激励计划，这是一种基于业主认为设计-建造团队满足RFP目标的程度的财务激励。 我们还将讨论整个过程中所需的RFP证实要求如何对确保实际建造的内容与能源模型输入相匹配至关重要。引文:内华达州拉斯维加斯ASHRAE会议论文

This paper will review a novel procurement, acquisition, and contract process of a large-scale replicable net zero energy (ZEB) office building. The owners (who are also commercial building energy efficiency researchers) developed and implemented an energy performance based design-build process to procure a 220,000 ft2office building with contractual requirements to meet demand side energy and LEED goals. We will outline the key procurement steps needed to ensure achievement of our energy efficiency and ZEB goals using a replicable delivery process. The development of a clear and comprehensive Request for Proposal (RFP) that includes specific and measurable energy use intensity goals is critical to ensure energy goals are met in a cost effective manner. The RFP includes a contractual requirement to meet an absolute demand side energy use requirement of 25 kBtu/ft2, with specific calculation methods on what loads are included, how to normalize the energy goal based on increased space efficiency and data center allocation, specific plug loads and schedules, and calculation details on how to account for energy used from the campus hot and chilled water supply. The RFP also provides for stretch goals, such as reaching net zero energy. Additional advantages of integrating energy requirements into this procurement process include leveraging the voluntary incentive program, which is a financial incentive based on how well the owner feels the design-build team is meeting the RFP goals. We will also discuss how the RFP substantiation requirements that are required throughout the process are critical to ensure that what is actually being built matches the energy model inputs.
