For legislation to establish a net zero stretch energy code. Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy.
AI Summary
This bill aims to establish a "net zero stretch energy code" in Massachusetts. It requires the Board of Building Regulations and Standards, in consultation with the Department of Energy Resources, to define "net zero buildings" and update the current Stretch Energy Code to incorporate this definition. The bill mandates that the net zero stretch energy code be fully implemented by 2030, with regulations reviewed and updated every three years. The implementation plan must consider the needs of environmental justice communities and prioritize regional renewable energy generation.
