Do New Construction Projects Need Title 24?

Whether new construction projects require a Title 24 energy report in California — and how to confirm for your specific project.

In most cases, new construction projects that add or alter conditioned space require a Title 24 report before a permit is issued.

When it's required

If your new construction project involves new conditioned space or changes to the envelope, HVAC, or water heating, a report is generally required. Title 24 is a statewide California energy code. New Construction projects follow the same statewide standards; the exact requirements depend on your project's scope and address, which we model in CEC-approved compliance software.
