The International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) prototype building models (prototype models) were developed by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), in support of DOE's Building Energy Codes Program (BECP), to simulate energy savings associated with changes in energy codes and standards. For residential buildings, PNNL utilized two base prototypes to simulate both Single-family detached house, and Multi-family low-rise apartment building types. Energy models for the recent versions of the IECC are available for each climate.

Section 304(a) of the Energy Conservation and Production Act, as amended, directs the U.S. Secretary of Energy to review the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC)1 and make a determination as to whether updated editions would improve energy efficiency in residential buildings. The IECC is developed by the International Code Council (ICC) through an established industry review and consensus process with updated editions typically published every 3 years. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) reviews the energy saving impacts of updated code editions and publishes its findings in the Federal Register. The DOE determination and accompanying technical analysis serve as useful guidance to state and local governments as they review and update their building codes. 

The most recent edition, the 2024 IECC, was published in August 2024, triggering the DOE review and determination process.2 DOE and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) conducted a technical analysis to determine energy savings for the 2024 IECC (ICC 2024) residential provisions relative to the previous edition, the 2021 IECC (ICC 2021). This report documents the methodology used to conduct the analysis and summarizes the results.
