The document is an adaptation of the 2018 edition of the International Energy Conservation Code. It is meant to specifically meet the needs of the Caribbean and other countries in tropical environments. It establishes minimum energy efficiency requirements for buildings using prescriptive and performance-related provisions inclusive of building envelope, cooling system, ventilation, pumping, lighting and the service water-heating systems in buildings. The technical requirements of this code are the product of regional and international expertise.
