After an extensive process of public stakeholder engagement and industry consultation, the Township of Langley has adopted the BC Energy Step Code. Effective January 1, 2019, compliance with the BC Energy Step Code is required for all new building permit applications for residential buildings. Visit energystepcode.ca.
The following chart summarizes the Township’s past and future adoption of the BC Energy Step Code for residential buildings:
Our 2020 UBC Sustainability Scholar, Madhur Motwani, researched and wrote a report to help inform the Township’s adoption of the BC Energy Step Code for Part 3 non-residential buildings. Take a look at the report findings!
Energy and Water Conservation and Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Development Permit Areas (GHG DPAs) are designated as development permit areas under Sections 488.1 (h) (i) and (j) of the Local Government Act to establish objectives to promote energy and water conservation and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. GHG DPAs are highlighted in this map (subject to change; please refer to the Official Community Plan for more information).
The adoption of the Step Code builds on the success of the Township’s voluntary Green Building Rebate Program, established in 2014. Adopting the Step Code allows the Township to continue to meet goals within the community to conserve energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the operation of buildings.
The Step Code is a new provincial standard that provides an incremental and consistent approach to achieve energy efficient construction. The Step Code requires buildings to demonstrate energy efficiency code compliance through:
This means builders will be required to work with a qualified energy consultant (an Energy Advisor or energy modeler). Projects that use the Step Code must demonstrate compliance with a number of performance targets:
The Step Code provides local government and industry with a clear framework to make progress towards the provincial goal that all new construction in BC is built “net-zero energy ready” by 2032. The Province defines a net-zero energy ready building as one that has been designed and built to a level of performance, such that it could (with additional measures) generate enough onsite energy to meet its own energy needs. It’s expected that net-zero energy ready buildings will be required by the BC Building Code by 2032.
The voluntary Part 3 Energy Design Report can be found on the BC Energy Step Code – Compliance Tools for Part 3 Buildings website. This tool can be used with any version of the BC Energy Step Code and is currently in its Beta version.
The following documents are required as part of all new building permit applications for Step Code projects:
The report/calculator used to generate the BC Energy Compliance Reports and more information related to these reports can be found on the BC Energy Step Code web page under Resources: Compliance Tools for Part 9 Buildings.
For non-residential Part 9 projects, contact the Building Department for the building permit application requirements.
If you have any questions regarding required documentation, email greenbuildings@tol.ca.
The Part 3 Energy Design Report found on the BC Energy Step Code – Compliance Tools for Part 3 Building website is requested (but not required) as part of the Building Permit application package for Part 3 buildings.
A number of incentives are available for projects that wish to conduct mid-construction blower door testing or design to the upper steps of the Step Code. Information on these incentives can be found below:
The Township submitted a BC Energy Step Code Notice of Consultation to the Province on November 7, 2017. After engaging the development and construction community in early 2018, a clear path forward for the integration of the Step Code over several years was brought to council and approved as part of the Township of Langley’s Building Bylaw.
