EO 13514 framework

• Executive Order 13514 establishes numerous goals
  for Federal agencies.
• EO 13514 represents a transformative shift in the
  way the government operates by
• establishing GHGs as the integrating metric for
  tracking progress in Federal sustainability
• requiring a deliberative planning process
• linking to budget allocations and OMB scorecards
  to ensure goal achievement.
• E.O. 13423 Strengthening Federal Environmental,
  Energy, and Transportation Management (January
  29, 2007) is not revoked by the new E.O. the
  requirements of that Order remain in effect.

Other EO 13514 Goals

• The new Executive Order also requires agencies
• to meet sustainability targets, including
• Achieve 30 reduction in vehicle fleet petroleum
  use by 2020
• Achieve 26 reduction in potable 20 reduction
  in industrial, landscaping, agricultural water
  consumption by 2020
• Comply with new EPA stormwater management
  guidance

• Requires that 95 of all applicable procurement
  contracts will meet sustainability requirements
• Requires 15 of buildings meet the Guiding
  Principles for High Performance and Sustainable
  Buildings by 2015
• Design all new Federal buildings which begin the
  planning process by 2020 to achieve zero-net
  energy by 2030

Strategic Sustainability Performance Plan

• By June 2, 2009, Submit the SSP Plan that shall
• Demonstrate how agency will achieve the goals and
  targets in Section 2 of the E.O., including
  agency GHG reduction targets
• Be integrated into agencys strategic planning
  and budget process
• Identify agency activities, policies, plans,
  procedures and practices that are relevant to
  implementation of the E.O., and develop new ones
  where necessary
• Identify specific goals, a schedule, milestones,
  and approaches for achieving results and
  quantifiable metrics for agency implementation of
  the E.O.
• Incorporate actions for achieving progress
  metrics identified by OMB and CEQ

SSP Plan (cont.)

• The SSP Plan shall (cont.)
• Take into consideration environmental measures as
  well as economic and social benefits and costs in
  evaluating projects and activities based on
  lifecycle return on investment
• Outline planned actions to make available
  information about agency progress and performance
  on a public website
• Evaluate climate change risks and vulnerabilities
  to managing the effects on agency operations and
  missions
• Take into consideration environmental measures as
  well as economic and social benefits and costs in
  evaluating projects and activities based on
  lifecycle return on investment
• Identify opportunities for improvement in annual
  updates.

GHG Emissions by Scope
GHG Emissions by Scope
Compliance with EO 13514 means agencies will have
to gather data on Scopes 1, 2 and 3 emissions
from a number of sources.

GHG Sources
The examples below illustrates just a few sources
of GHGs from federal agencies.
GHG Some Sources
CO2 (Carbon dioxide) Fossil fuel combustion, Land Use Change
CH4 (Methane) Cattle, WWT, landfills, rice fields, natural gas
N2O (Nitrous Oxide) Agriculture, mobile stationary combustion, Wastewater treatment, incineration
PFCs (Perflourocarbons) Al production, semiconductor, health imaging
HFCs (Hydroflourocarbons) Refrigerant leaks, fire extinguishers, solvents
SF6 (Sulfur Hexaflouride) Mg casting, transformers, switches
NF3 (Nitrogen Triflouride) Semiconductor manufacturing

Approaches to Completing a GHG Inventory

• Top-down
• Headquarters level
• Use existing data systems
• Standardized calculation
• Bottom-up
• Equipment level
• Detailed site-specific data
• Customized calculation
• Rollup to headquarters level

• Faster
• Cheaper
• Less Detailed
• Less Site Ownership
• Slower
• More Expensive
• More Detailed
• More Site Ownership

Multiple GHG reporting requirements

• FEDERAL Federal reporting similar to Annual
  Energy Report
• NATIONAL American Clean Energy and Security Act
  of 2009 (ACESA) Markey/Waxman
• Stationary sources emitting more than 25k metric
  tons of CO2 equivalent per year
• Facilities with on-site power plant or landfill
  must also report emissions
• Emitters must report emissions in 2011 for
  2007-2010, and quarterly thereafter
• NATIONAL EPA Mandatory GHG rulemaking, reporting
  in 2010
• REGIONAL e.g. RGGI
• STATE and LOCAL e.g. California
• GHG REGISTRIES e.g. Climate Registry
