This Department of Energy initiative provides targeted technical support to state and local governments working to adopt, implement, and enforce updated building energy codes. The program helps jurisdictions maximize energy efficiency, resilience, and carbon reduction in residential and commercial construction. Through personalized assistance and access to resources like cost-benefit analyses, code language reviews, and stakeholder engagement strategies, communities can accelerate the adoption of more sustainable building practices. It’s especially valuable for regions with limited staffing or expertise in navigating complex regulatory frameworks tied to energy efficiency goals.
