California Air Resources Board Draft 2022 Scoping Plan - APPENDIX F BUILDING DECARBONIZATION

Summary

California faces significant greenhouse gas emissions from buildings, necessitating accelerated decarbonization to meet mid-century climate targets and mitigate climate change impacts. The state plans to achieve this primarily through building electrification in both new and existing structures, setting goals for zero-emission new construction by 2026 (residential) and 2029 (commercial), and zero-emission appliance sales by 2035 (residential) and 2045 (commercial). This initiative is currently in the planning phase as outlined in a May 2022 Draft Scoping Plan.
