SUMMARY:Collaborative Solutions for Energy Code Compliance:  Central Coast Conversation with the CEC
DESCRIPTION:Register \n \nJoin 3C-REN and the California Energy Commission (CEC) in San Luis Obispo for an in-person forum offering a unique opportunity for the Central Coast building community to help shape the future of energy code compliance in California. \nLocal building departments staff\, architects\, designers\, engineers\, sustainability professionals\, ECC Raters\, energy consultants\, builders\, contractors\, and other building-industry partners are invited to: \n\nHear directly from the CEC about their ongoing compliance initiatives and why it matters to building projects on the Central Coast.\nLearn from other Central Coast professionals about common challenges and approaches that are working.\nDiscuss systematic and recurring problems involving plans\, documentation\, permitting\, construction\, verification\, and inspections.\nShare ideas for making compliance clearer\, more consistent\, and less burdensome while supporting affordability\, sustainability\, and better-performing buildings.\nConnect directly with 3C-REN team members\, CEC staff\, building departments\, and industry peers.\n\nThis collaborative forum is a unique opportunity to provide meaningful feedback directly to the CEC and 3C-REN to highlight regional needs and local priorities. \nFollowing the presentations\, attendees will have the opportunity to continue the conversation and engage directly with CEC & 3C-REN staff and/or network with fellow attendees over lunch. \nDoors open at 9:00 AM. Complimentary coffee\, pastries\, and lunch will be provided. \nLearning Objectives \n\nExplain the CEC’s current energy code compliance initiatives and how regional stakeholder inputs will inform future compliance evaluation and assistance efforts.\nExplore how energy code compliance can support energy efficiency\, resilience\, occupant comfort\, affordability\, and broader sustainability goals.\nCompare practical energy code compliance challenges faced by Central Coast jurisdictions and industry professionals to improve code interpretation\, project delivery\, and code enforcement.\nIdentify CEC\, 3C-REN\, and regional resources that can support consistent and effective energy code compliance.\nContribute regional priorities and recommendations for improving statewide compliance strategies and support.\n\nLearning Units \n\n3.0 AIA LUs pending for this course\n0.30 ICC CEUs pending for this course\n3.0 CEA CEUs pending for this course\n\nAgenda \n9:00 AM – Doors open: Check-in & Welcome Refreshments \n9:30 AM – Forum begins \n12:30 PM – Networking Lunch \n1:30 PM – Forum ends \nAdditional Information \nFree parking is available in the adjacent lot. Please park only in unmarked spaces. Do not park in spaces designated or marked for the County Veterans Service Office. Enter the event through the doors located along Grand Ave. \n \nChoose a sustainable way to get to the event! Attendees who take public transportation\, carpool\, walk\, or bike will be entered into a giveaway for a chance to win a prize courtesy of SLO Rideshare. \n \nBy attending a 3C-REN event\, you acknowledge and consent to being photographed\, filmed\, or otherwise recorded.

SUMMARY:Resiliency with Grid-tied Solar & Battery
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEvent Description \nThis course is designed for forward-thinking home and business owners\, builders\, and architects who want to take control of their energy future and build truly resilient buildings. Renewable energy systems with solar and battery at home have two major benefits: (1) store the solar generation for use during high-priced times of day; and (2) keeping power to your home when the grid is down. The utility cost savings from load shifting benefit gets most of the attention\, but the resiliency in case of blackouts could be just as valuable. This course evaluates solar and battery systems with resiliency as the main focus and economics as a key consideration. \nYou’ll discover how to correctly size batteries (where most systems fail)\, prioritize critical loads\, and ensure your solar actually works during an outage. We will use case studies of homes and businesses keeping the power on in case of blackouts to understand the benefits through real-world examples. Homes can keep life-saving medical equipment running in case of a grid outage. Businesses can continue to serve their communities in case of a natural disaster. We’ll also cover emerging opportunities like virtual power plants\, smart panels\, and vehicle-to-home integration—turning your building into a high-performance energy asset\, not just a consumer. \nLearning Objectives \n\nUnderstand the benefits of renewable energy systems consisting of solar and battery storage\nLearn how to configure batteries so that critical loads are powered for days\, not hours\nAnalyze 24-hour to multi-day outage conditions\, including seasonal solar variability\, to ensure systems perform under worst-case conditions\, not just ideal average assumptions.\nUse case studies to examine what use cases most benefit from grid-tied solar and storage\n\nLearning Units \n1.5 AIA LUs pending for this course \nInstructors  \nNick Brown\, Build Smart Group \nRobert Fortunato\, ForStrategy Consulting \nCourse Location \nZoom link provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Checking Residential Load Calculations and Duct Design
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEvent Description \nLoad calculations and duct design have been required by the code for many code cycles but few building departments know what to ask for or how to check it\, therefore enforcement has been very poor. This class will help building department understand the importance of asking for load calcs and duct design as required by code. It will help them understand what is required and how to verify that it is reasonable and accurate. \nLearning Objectives \n\nReview the overall energy code compliance process including prescriptive and performance approaches.\nUnderstand how HVAC fits into the overall compliance of homes.\nUnderstand the code requirements for residential load calculations and duct designs.\nUnderstand how to plan check and field inspect load calculations and duct designs.\nBe familiar with the best practices for energy code compliance.\n\nLearning Units \n\n2.0 AIA HSW LUs pending for this course\n0.2 ICC CEUs pending for this course\n2.0 CEA CEUs pending for this course\n\nInstructors  \nRuss King\, Coded Energy \nCourse Location \nZoom link provided upon registration.
