NYS Updates its Building / Energy Codes
from Putting Out the Planetary Fire Hosted by Mark A Dunlea
On Tuesday, February 25, the NY Department of State (DOS) and NYSERDA released a revised draft of the 2024 Building/Energy Code update. A public hearing and vote was held on February 28. While many praised the council for including the provisions of the All Electric Building Act in their draft, a number of key proposals made by the Climate Aciton Council were relegated to an advisory appendix rather than being treated as the mandate they are (e.g., requiring nw buildings to be wired to accept solar, electric vehicles charging). We hear from a number of speakers, starting with Assemblymember Gallagher of Brooklyn; Assemblymember Sarahana Shrestha of New Paltz; Justin Flagg representing Senator Kruger; Assemblymember Anna Kelles of Ithaca; Eric Wood of NYPIRG; and a staff person for ACEEE the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy
