Has anyone seen any new security (PACS or Video) reqirements in the CA title 24 other than lighting?

I scanned the 2013 edition (For background, Title 24 homepage) and did not see any energy conservation requirements for CCTV or Access.

There have been manufacturers in the past promote 'green' security products, and maybe contribute to LEED credits in some manner, but nothing substantial.

In part, the lack of legislative focus comes from the rather minor overall savings from security systems:

It seems fair to say that current interest is aimed at 'big ticket' energy users like increasing lighting and HVAC/Thermal efficiency first.
