Achievement of each of the group's goals listed above is summarized in the text below. A hot line responded to 2,700 calls. There was broad representation across the various building industry groups in the training program. More than one-third of the respondents had participated in some code informational activity. Participation and awareness was highest among building officials.
Anecdotal evidence suggests awareness is high across all groups.
One of the major successes of the non-residential energy code implementation effort was to show that high levels of energy code compliance are possible. A survey of local jurisdictions shows that over 80 percent were enforcing the code. They achieved this goal. The cost for code implementation was an order of magnitude less than the residential energy code. Since the residential energy code has proven to be cost-effective, it is likely that the code implementation effort was very cost effective.
