Bill > S2167

This bill sets a goal for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to meet 100% of its energy needs with renewable energy by 2035, including electricity, heating and cooling, transportation, and other uses. To achieve this, the bill establishes an administrative council for the clean energy transition, which will review existing laws and programs to identify ways to accelerate the transition to 100% renewable energy while maximizing environmental and economic benefits, particularly for environmental justice communities. The council will also determine a date by which state government operations will be powered by 100% renewable energy, and each state agency will develop a plan to achieve this goal. The council will meet quarterly to review progress and provide opportunities for public input.
