Advanced Energy Design Guides (AEDG)
The Advanced Energy Design Guides (AEDG) are a series of publications designed to provide prescriptive solutions for achieving energy savings of 50% below the minimum code requirements (ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2004). The guides have been developed by a collaboration of DOE, the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), American Institute of Architects, U.S. Green Building Council, and the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IES). The previous series of guides to achieve 30% savings (based on ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999) is available for small office buildings, small retail buildings, small warehouses and self-storage buildings, highway lodging, hospitals/healthcare, and K-12 schools.
