2024 reporting

New Energy Codes

In response to growing demand, we are adding the following new energy codes for this upcoming 2024 reporting year:

• ASHRAE 90.1 2022 - 55% savings from baseline

• Massachusetts Stretch Code 2023 - 61% savings from baseline

• 2020 CoBECC - 59% savings from baseline

Adding Company Collaborator functions

Collaborators can be individuals inside or outside your company or external companies that you want to grant read-only or editing permissions for specific projects. Collaborators can be added to or removed from a project at any time. Learn more >

Embodied carbon updates

Embodied carbon data continues to be an optional field for DDx project data. This year, upon the release of the ECHO Project Schema, the AIA DDx has aligned its embodied carbon data fields to reflect the data points from the schema. The bulk import spreadsheet will be updated accordingly in December to reflect these additional fields:

• LCA assessment year (note: historically in the DDx, embodied carbon modeled date was optional)

• Project phase at the time of assessment

• Carbon modeling tool (with an expanded list building upon past year’s)

• When listing which scopes were included in the analysis, there will be inclusion of additional scopes to check all that apply. This will include:

  • Shell-superstructure

  • Shell-exterior

  • Interiors-construction

  • Interiors-finishes

  • Services

  • Sitework

  • Equipment

  • Furnishings

  • For each scope, there will be opportunity to break down the predicted embodied carbon (kgCO2e/m2). If not available, please provide the full predicted embodied carbon for the project.

More information will be coming in December 2024!
