The project is being conducted over the period November 2013 to June 2014 and has been divided into two phases.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Process<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Phase 1 of the National Energy Efficient Buildings Project (NEEBP) involves three key parts:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>A national review of key systematic or process weaknesses or possible points of non-compliance with the energy efficiency requirements of the National Construction Code;<\/li>\n<li>A national review of the uniformity and effectiveness of current standards or regulations to deliver energy efficient alterations, additions and retrofits;<\/li>\n<li>A national information register of materials that support industry capacity to understand, implement and comply with the energy efficiency provisions of the National Construction Code.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Phase 2 of the project will develop and trial practical strategies to address problems wherever they occur in the construction cycle. These strategies will be identified in Phase 1 and could include activities as broad as industry capacity building, voluntary guidelines and standards or recommended changes to policy or regulations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to get involved<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Attend a workshop<\/h4>\n<p>Come to one of the industry workshops being held at different times in 11 locations around the country.
