5.201 Add the following sections:
5.201.1.1 Energy performance.
(a) All-electric buildings. A newly constructed all-electric non-residential building shall demonstrate the Energy Budget for the proposed building is no greater than the Energy Budget calculated for the Standard Design Building meeting California Title 24 Part 6 Energy Standards.
(b) Mixed-fuel buildings. A newly constructed mixed-fuel non-residential building shall demonstrate the Energy Budget for the proposed building is no greater than 90% of the Title 24 Part 6 Energy Budget for the Standard Design Building meeting California Title 24 Part 6 Energy Standards.
Exception: Buildings consisting primarily of occupancy F, L, or H are exempt from this Section.
5.201.1.2. Better roofs.
(a) California Title 24 Part 6 Energy Standards section 140.10 requires newly constructed buildings of uses noted in Table 140.10-A to install photovoltaic (PV) energy systems, and requires the minimum size of such systems to be not less than the smaller of PV direct current size determined by Equation 140.10-A, or the total of all Solar Access Roof Area (SARA) multiplied by 14 W/ft2. Projects that constitute a Large Development Project or Small Development Project under the Stormwater Management Ordinance (Public Works Code secs 147-147.6) may exclude from SARA any roof area where both:
(1) The area is occupied by living roof, meaning the area of media for growing plants, and
(2) The area occupied by living roof contributes to determination of compliance with the Stormwater Management Ordinance, as documented by a Preliminary Stormwater Control Plan or a Modified Compliance Application submitted to the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission.
(b) In any final Stormwater Control Plan approved by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, including where such approval may occur subsequent to addenda to a Site Permit wherein compliance with California Title 24 Part 6 Energy Standards is documented, the applicant shall ensure the area occupied by living roof contributing to determination of compliance with the Stormwater Management Ordinance is no less than the square footage approved for exclusion from SARA.
