Policymakers Corner

A policymaker is an elected official, a state energy official, a codes committee member, or any other administrator who has direct authority to recommend or implement changes to a jurisdiction’s energy code.

Policymakers Corner provides all the tools you need to realize the benefits of an energy efficient building sector in your community. Within this section a policymaker will find model legislation, state-specific facts and figures that illustrate how energy codes can save your constituents money, and information explaining the environmental benefits of strong energy codes. Case studies outlining lessons learned and best practices from other jurisdictions will help you replicate successes and avoid mistakes.

Moreover, Policy Makers’ Corner provides a forum for policy makers from across the nation -- and even from across the world -- to communicate with one another, share ideas and concerns, and receive recognition for successes.
