California Can’t Wait on All-Electric New Building Code - Rocky Mountain Institute
New analysis shows urgency of an all-electric new construction requirement in the CEC's 2022 code cycle. Missing this cycle means 3 million tons CO2 emitted and over a billion dollars of (avoidable) spending on gas infrastructure.
California Can’t Wait on All-Electric New Building Code - Rocky Mountain Institute
The California Energy Commission (CEC) has an opportunity to demonstrate this leadership over the next several months with the 2022 building energy code cycle, which could require all-electric new construction statewide. Acting today will have far-reaching benefits—and conversely, the costs of missing this cycle are significant. According to RMI analysis, delaying the code update until the next cycle would result in an additional three million tons of carbon emissions by 2030—the equivalent of putting 650,000 more cars on the road for a year. The CEC should require all-electric new construction in the upcoming code cycle to help achieve California’s climate, health, and economic goals.
