Enhancing Building Energy Efficiency codes reduces owner costs AND carbon emissions
Enhancing Building Energy Efficiency codes reduces owner costs AND carbon emissions
Our building energy efficiency codes are far behind most in the 1st world, and are one reason our building energy costs and carbon emissions are so high. Additionally, greatly improving our building energy efficiency building codes will make achieving our renewable energy targets far less expensive, so improving the code will be a win-win-win.
