The Performance-Based Approach provides incentives for building homes that exceed the California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24) by at least 15 percent.
These homes can also qualify for the ENERGY STAR® for Homes label, which is widely recognized for energy efficiency.

The SDG&E Advanced Home Program will also provide qualifying projects with energy efficiency incentives for both single family and multifamily new construction.
In addition, builders will qualify for incremental incentives from the California Energy Commission’s New Solar Homes Partnership.
Through this program, SDG&E seeks to create a comprehensive case study portfolio of projects structured around three principles.
The program helps builders, architects and designers with a broad base of support, including design assistance, outside expertise, financial incentives, education, resources and recognition.
These case studies will highlight the underutilized potential of sustainability in new construction and bring innovative approaches to the marketplace.
San Diego Gas & Electric offers Title 24 training classes to help you recognize your options and learn how energy-saving technologies can help reduce your cost of complying with the new energy standards.
