Author: Marc Berman

Summary
AB 2083, as amended, Berman. Industrial facilities’ heat application equipment and process emissions. The Warren-Alquist State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Act requires the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission to adopt building design and construction standards and energy and water conservation standards for new residential and nonresidential buildings to reduce the wasteful, uneconomic, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy, including energy associated with the use of water. The act requires those standards to be cost effective when taken in their entirety and when amortized over the economic life of the structure compared with historic practice.The act requires the commission to adopt, on a biennial basis, an integrated energy policy report containing an overview of major energy trends and issues facing the state, as specified.This bill would require the commission, on or before July 1, 2026, to assess the potential for the state to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases from the state’s industrial facilities’ heat application equipment and processes by at least 85% below 1990 levels by January 1, 2045, as specified. The bill would require the commission to include in the 2027 edition of the integrated energy policy report, and in all subsequent integrated energy policy reports, a report on the emissions of greenhouse gases associated with the supply of energy to industrial facilities by fuel type.
