Energy Code
Lone Tree energy code quick facts
- Code reference
- 2021 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) with local amendments (per City of Lone Tree Municipal Code Chapter 18, adopted via Ordinance No. 22-07, Series of 2022).Ord. No. 22-07
- Code reference
- Lone Tree (Douglas County, climate zone 5B) adopts the 2021 IECC by reference with amendments as part of its building regulations.
- Code reference
- State law (HB 22-1362 and related provisions) requires jurisdictions updating building codes to adopt at least the 2021 IECC plus the Colorado Model Electric Ready and Solar Ready Code (with amendments that cannot reduce stringency).
- Code reference
- Key prescriptive requirements relevant to remodels/additions (drawn from the base 2021 IECC for CZ 5B, as specific local numeric energy amendments are not detailed in available municipal sources beyond the general adoption; confirm with the Building Division for exact local tweaks):
- Wall insulation
- R-20 or 13+5 ci (continuous insulation) for wood-frame walls (2021 IECC Table R402.1.2 or equivalent prescriptive path).
- Ceiling/attic insulation
- R-49 (2021 IECC Table R402.1.2).
- Air leakage/air-sealing
- ≤ 3 ACH50 (air changes per hour at 50 Pascals) with blower-door testing required for verification (2021 IECC R402.4; state baseline aligns with this).
- Fenestration U-factor
- Maximum 0.30 for windows (or as per prescriptive table; SHGC requirements also apply in CZ 5).

What this covers
Residential battery cabinet, inverter pairing, and backup loads panel as specified. Electrical service, disconnects, and interconnection follow the utility and Denver electrical permit.

Technical scope
Residential battery cabinet, inverter pairing, and backup loads panel as specified. Electrical service, disconnects, and interconnection follow the utility and Denver electrical permit. No Tesla-certified-installer claim is made unless a grounded source states it.

How the work is coordinated
No Tesla-certified-installer claim is made unless a grounded source states it. Denver-metro work is permitted locally. Colorado has no statewide general-contractor license. Cities and counties license general contractors. DORA licenses electrical and plumbing (and similar regulated trades), not general contractors. Autotelic is a municipally licensed Denver general contractor that coordinates licensed specialty trades. Denver building permits run through Community Planning and Development (CPD). Costs are project-specific; no dollar figures.

FAQ
Common questions
How much does Home Battery / Energy Storage Assessment cost in Lone Tree?
$199.
How do I book?
Press Book next to the job, pick a date and a morning (8–12) or afternoon (12–4) window, and pay in full. We confirm within 24 hours or refund you in full.
What's not included?
Battery hardware and installation labor are not included.
What changed with the federal tax credit in 2026?
The federal residential clean energy credit expired for systems placed in service after December 31, 2025, so homeowners who pay cash or finance with a loan in 2026 receive no federal credit. Some installers still advertise the old credit; we do not. Leased or PPA systems still capture roughly 30% through the section 48E credit (through 2032), passed through by the lessor.
What will a Powerwall run during an outage?
It depends on which circuits are on the protected loads. A single Powerwall can keep essentials like lights, refrigeration, outlets, and a gas furnace running for many hours, but running an entire home for a long outage requires enough battery capacity for your specific loads. We model this during design so the system matches your expectations.
Does a Powerwall require solar panels?
No. Powerwall works as a standalone backup battery charged from the grid, so solar is not required for outage protection. Adding solar lets the battery recharge during the day and extends backup coverage, but it is optional.
How do the permit and Xcel interconnection work?
We pull the municipal electrical permit and submit the Xcel Energy interconnection application on your behalf. After installation, a municipal inspection and Xcel approval are required before the battery is given permission to operate and activated.
Who qualifies for Xcel Energy's Renewable Battery Connect rebate?
Xcel Energy customers with qualifying battery systems may be eligible for $350 per kW, up to $5,000, with income-qualified customers eligible for $800 per kW. Rebate amounts depend on program-year funding availability and the program rules in effect when the application is submitted.
