Summary

Existing law requires the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, by January 1, 2021, to assess the potential for the state to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases from the state's residential and commercial building stock by at least 40% below 1990 levels by January 1, 2030. Existing law requires the commission to include in the 2021 edition of the integrated energy policy report and all subsequent integrated energy policy reports a report on the emissions of greenhouse gases associated with the supply of energy to residential and commercial buildings. Existing law requires the commission to establish the Equitable Building Decarbonization Program that includes a direct install program and a statewide incentive program for low-carbon building technologies. Existing law establishes the policy of the state to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible, but no later than 2045, and to ensure that, by 2045, statewide anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions are reduced to at least 85% below the statewide greenhouse gas emissions in 1990. This bill would require the commission, on or before June 1, 2024, to adopt a strategy, with milestones, to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases for the building sector, as provided. The bill would require the commission, in developing the strategy, to consult and collaborate with certain entities, to hold at least 2 public workshops, and to convene stakeholder sessions.
