Thank you to all who worked to get their municipalities to vote on the recommendations for energy efficiency improvements to the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). The preliminary voting results are in. According to the Energy Efficient Codes Council (EECC), we have achieved a huge victory for building energy efficiency – the first in 3 code cycles and most likely in excess of the 10% gains for both residential and commercial buildings. Of EECC’s 99 priority voting guide proposals, only 3 were not affirmed.
The new 2021 IECC will be a huge efficiency gain for both commercial and residential efficiency and a big step forward for putting our nation’s model energy code on a glide path to net zero buildings. Click here for more details. Thank you for all who helped with this victory!
