City of Fort Worth - Residential and Commercial Green Building Requirements

In March 2011, the City of Fort Worth adopted the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code with amendments as the City’s building energy code.

Per state law, the City of Fort Worth now implements the 2015 International Energy Conservation Code with amendments as the City's residential building energy code. There are two codes that can be used for compliance with the state's energy conservation mandate for the City's commercial building energy code: the 2015 International Energy Conservation Code with amendments and the 2013 ASHRAE 90.1.
