Bill overview
This bill directs the California State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission to study the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of using ‘passive house’ building standards. Passive house construction focuses on extreme energy efficiency. The commission will analyze the costs and benefits of these standards compared to existing building practices, considering different climate zones and using specific modeling techniques. The commission is required to submit a report to the legislature detailing its findings by July 1, 2028.
