Title 24 and energy compliance in Orange County
Get Title 24 Documents That Match the Building Plans
We document the California energy-code path for Orange County teams and keep the compliance report, plan notes, envelope, and systems consistent for permit review.
- Use real project inputs
- Match reports and plans
- Flag field verification
California compliance focus
Support for energy-code requirements affecting new construction, additions, and qualifying renovations.
Plans considered together
Energy measures can be reviewed alongside architecture, structure, and building-system design.
Engineering team
Professional engineering experience supporting building design and compliance.

Service scope
What we review and model
The inputs depend on the building and permit work.
- Project type, occupancy, climate zone, and the energy-code requirements triggered by the work
- Conditioned area, orientation, glazing, insulation, and other envelope assumptions
- HVAC, lighting, water heating, and related systems that affect the compliance path
- Plan or roof decisions that must agree with the energy documentation
Project deliverables
Deliverables matched to your project
The proposal names the required documents and follow-up.
- An energy model or analysis showing the documented compliance approach
- Applicable Title 24 reports, forms, plan notes, and specifications
- Revised energy documents and responses to applicable plan-check comments
- A list of testing or field-verification items and related coordination when included
A clear path forward
Make the report and plans tell the same story
- 01Step Step 01
Share the current design
Send the project type, plans, envelope information, proposed systems, and any permit comments.
- 02Step Step 02
Evaluate the compliance choices
We model the agreed inputs and identify measures or tradeoffs that must be reflected in the design.
- 03Step Step 03
Issue the matching documents
We prepare the compliance package and address applicable review or coordination questions included in the proposal.
Why NBE
Choose compliance measures while the design can still change
Early analysis gives the team more useful options than a report prepared after every selection is fixed.
Clear Communication From First Question to Next Step
“They were very responsive, helped me salvage what I could from the previous firm, and provided the expertise and knowledge needed to finish the job quickly and efficiently.”
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Title 24 energy compliance?+
Title 24 includes California building energy-efficiency requirements. The applicable documentation and measures depend on the project type, scope, occupancy, and current code requirements.
Which projects need energy compliance documents?+
New construction, additions, and many major alterations may trigger energy-code requirements. The permit scope and reviewing jurisdiction determine what is required for a specific project.
When should energy analysis begin?+
Begin while envelope, glazing, HVAC, lighting, and water-heating choices can still be coordinated. Waiting until submittal can limit practical options if the design does not meet the required performance.
Can you respond to Title 24 plan-check comments?+
Yes. Send the correction notice, current compliance report, and affected plan sheets so we can review the requested changes and define the response scope.
Do you perform HERS testing or field verification?+
Testing and verification may require an appropriately qualified third party. We can identify documentation dependencies and coordinate within the agreed scope, but the proposal will distinguish analysis and forms from field testing or certification.
Do you provide structural engineering for solar panels?+
New Beginnings Engineering offers roof structural engineering and can assess structural requirements for solar-related loads as a related scope. Electrical and energy documentation may require coordination with other disciplines.
