Maryland
Summary
Maryland is currently the only state that has adopted the latest national model code, the 2012 IECC. State policy is to update to the latest code within 6 months of publication. Energy performance criteria are outlined for residential and non-residential buildings, addressing thermal envelope components and energy efficiency requirements for HVAC, hot water, lighting and auxiliary systems. The code allows a prescriptive path or a simulated performance calculation of a reference building to show compliance.
Maryland is considered to be one of the most progressive States when it comes to energy efficiency and has had efficiency requirements since 1981. The 2012 code and surrounding state policy includes a number of dynamic initiatives to improve energy efficiency; mandated automatic adoption of the latest model code, mandatory posting of building certificates, mandatory whole-house pressure testing for residential buildings (optional for large buildings), pre-occupancy commissioning of commercial and multi-family residential buildings, extensive training of inspectors and stakeholders following new code implementation and special efficiency requirements for public buildings.

Energy Covered
Basis for Energy Requirements
-
Overall performance frame
No overall performance value, Annual energy usage simulation demonstrates that the proposed building’s energy costs are < “standard code” building
-
Final Energy
Partially, energy assessed is based on site energy, similar to final energy.
- Primary Energy
-
Life Cycle Assessment considered (embedded energy)
Maryland Life Cycle Cost Analysis Standards require an evaluation of the use of renewable energy systems and energy efficient strategies. In May 2011, the state also approved the 2012 (IGCC) for adoption by all local jurisdictions across the state.
Energy Uses and Functions Covered by the Code
-
Heating
Equipment efficiency and sizing requirements.
-
Cooling
Equipment efficiency and sizing requirements.
- Dehumidification
-
Ventilation
General control requirements for furnaces. Heat Pumps require a smart thermostat or lockout feature to prevent unnecessary strip heat. Whole house ventilation system required to meet IMC or IRC minimum efficiency rates. Sealing with Mastic required.
-
Airtightness
n50 is 5.0 for climatezones 1-2 and n50 is 3.0 for climatezones 3-8.
-
Thermal bridging
Prescriptive provisions in the 2012 IECC require higher R-value cavity insulation or the addition of continuous insulation to the exterior of wood-framed walls. No linear value requirement.
-
Hot water
General efficiency and sizing requirments, cylinder insulation, piping insulated to R3, or be short and skinny, and controls for plumbing circulating systems required, Heat trap requirements for non-circulating systems, temperature control requirements.
- Technical installations
-
Lighting
Residential requirements now mandatory, 75% of lamps in permanently installed fixtures shall be high efficacy lamps and and for reduction targets for multi-storey residential and commercial. Controls and occupancy sensors required.
- Appliances
- Design, position & orientation of building
-
Heat recovery
Mandated for ventilation systems that exceed a set level of airflow, with some exceptions. The system should have the capability to provide a change in the enthalpy of the outdoor air supply of not less than 50%.
- Passive solar
- Passive cooling
- Natural ventilation
- Solar protection
-
Daylighting requirements
Controls (set point) must be readily accessible. Daylighting controls must either reduce to less than 35% of rated maximum power; or incorporate stepped dimming.
-
Renewable Energy (solar, PV, others)
Partially, no renewable energy obligations. However, one compliance option is to provide on‐site renewable energy equal to 3% of the building’s mechanical, service water heating and lighting energy cost.
- Local renewable sources
- Energy Offsets/Green Certificates
Enforcement
Type of Enforcement
-
Local enforcement
The state code is enforced through plan review and inspections by local jurisdictions that have adopted the code. -
Third party inspection
Mostly on the eastern side of the state. - Central enforcement
- Accreditation of applicants
-
Post Occupancy control
The 2012 code requires that common area spaces, office space and back of house spaces of high‐rise multifamily buildings be “commissioned.”
On-site Inspections Occur
- On-site inspections
- During construction
- Post completion
-
Post occupancy
Final inspection, the building shall have a final inspection and not be occupied until approved.
Certification to Support Enforcement of Code
-
Energy Performance Certificate support BC
Mandatory permanent certificate to be posted by the builder or design professional, listing Major Component R-values, U-factor, SHGC of Windows, Equipment Efficiencies, GA Specific: Load Calculations and Envelope and Duct Testing Results. - Positive labeling for building beyond the minimum BC level
- Existence of EPC register database at national level
-
Inspection of boilers
Partially, pre-occupancy testing and Local/state safety inspections only. -
Inspection of HVAC systems
Partially, pre-occupancy efficiency requirements, ducting insulation requirements and pressure testing.
Penalties for Non-compliance
- None
- Fine
- Imprisonment
- Refusal of permission to occupy
- Refusal of permission to construct
- Demolition
Measures Supporting Enforcement
-
Commissioning requirements
Common area spaces, office space and back of house spaces of high‐rise multifamily buildings be “commissioned. Building mechanical systems must be commissioned in commercial buildings, including providing a plan and three reports. -
Airtightness testing required prior to compliance
Mandatory whole-house pressure test for residential, blower door test remains an optional compliance path for high‐rise buildings. -
Mandatory Computer Modeling
P -Building professionals can use REScheck and COMcheck materials to show compliance. -
Training of Inspectors
Trainging is conducted by the state officials, 20-30 free seminars each year. Additionally, in 2012 community college training seminars have begun and a very popular. - Other
