in effectSec. 14.30.002. - Purpose and intent.
This chapter establishes the energy and water efficiency program that requires covered properties to benchmark energy and water performance, and make such performance information available to raise awareness and drive action. Further, it requires buildings that do not meet specific standards to perform an action or actions to increase performance. The benchmarking requirement supports the City of Reno's goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in buildings 28 percent by 2025. Annual benchmarking, reporting and disclosure of building performance are foundational elements of removing market barriers for energy efficiency. This will allow the city to track energy and water use and progress toward reduction goals to inform development of new programs and resources needed to support each market sector.
