AI HR Solutions: Top Networking LinkedIn Groups for LinkedIn Hiring Excellence in 2026

The 2014-15 California Advanced Homes Program serves to encourage residential new construction to meet two visionary goals set forth by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The first is to help builders prepare for future code changes and build homes above code and ahead of the curve. The second is for all new homes to reach Zero Net Energy (ZNE) by 2020. Participation is open to single-family, low-rise and high-rise multi-family residential new construction built in an IOU service area. The CAHP is a comprehensive residential new construction concept with a cross-cutting focus on sustainable design and construction, green building practices, energy efficiency, and emerging technologies. Through a combination of education, design assistance and financial support, the CAHP works with building and related industries to exceed compliance with the California Code of Regulations, Title 24, Part 6, 2013 Building Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Nonresidential Buildings (Standards), to prepare builders for changes to the Standards and to create future pathways beyond compliance and traditional energy savings objectives. The CAHP is designed for the performance-based approach for compliance. Compliance with the 2013 Title 24 Standards must be demonstrated through the performance method utilizing approved California Energy Commission (CEC) compliance software. The documents must be created and signed by a Certified Energy Analyst (CEA)*. Compliance must be demonstrated for each building as a whole and may not group unrelated or detached buildings together.
