BC Energy Step
Code
The BC Energy Step Code is currently a voluntary
provincial standard that provides an incremental and
consistent approach to achieving more energy-ef昀椀cient
buildings that go beyond the requirements of the base
BC Building Code. It does so by establishing a series
of measurable, performance-based energy-ef昀椀ciency
requirements for construction that builders can choose
to build to, and communities may voluntarily choose to
adopt in bylaws and policies.

Lifecycle
Infrastructure Cost
(CLIC)
The community lifecycle infrastructure costing tool (CLIC
Tool) can help local governments better understand
the long-term cost implications of land use decisions.
The tool integrates infrastructure lifecycle costs
(development, maintenance, servicing and replacement)
into land use planning and development scenarios.
Speci昀椀c applications of the tool have modelled how
compact development is more cost-effective over time
than lower density development.
