Content Description
ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 100, Energy and Emissions Building Performance Standard for Existing Buildings, is a code-ready building performance standard that provides processes and procedures for reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions through improved energy efficiency and performance of all types of existing buildings, including residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial. Standard 100 provides owners, utility companies, and government at every level a verifiable process that can reduce energy costs and support tax incentives, rebates, and related programs.
The 2024 edition brings numerous key updates to the standard:
New metrics are provided for greenhouse gas emissions targets, along with continued improvements to energy efficiency and performance in existing buildings.
Buildings are required to
Establish an energy management plan that incorporates efficient, low-carbon equipment into capital replacement
Achieve energy and emissions performance goals
Implement an operations and maintenance program to ensure continued building performance.
Energy-efficient and low-emission buildings are provided a simple compliance mechanism to demonstrate compliance with the standard if they meet both energy use intensity (EUI) and greenhouse gas intensity (GHGI) targets.
For buildings that do not meet targets, an energy audit and decarbonization assessment must be conducted, necessary measures must be implemented, and it must be demonstrated that measured EUI and GHGI targets are met. A separate compliance process is included for building types without targets.

About ASHRAE
ASHRAE, founded in 1894, is a building technology society with more than 50,000 members worldwide. The Society and its members focus on building systems, energy efficiency, indoor air quality and sustainability within the industry. Through research, standards writing, publishing and continuing education, ASHRAE shapes tomorrow’s built environment today.
ASHRAE was formed as the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers by the merger in 1959 of American Society of Heating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHAE) founded in 1894 and The American Society of Refrigerating Engineers (ASRE) founded in 1904.
