to Build ‘Passive House’ in California for 2012
“The Passive House movement shows us what's possible with ultra-‐low-‐energy buildings. These homes are pushing the envelope and creaMng an invaluable collecMon of case studies that demonstrate just how dramaMcally energy consumpMon can be reduced-‐-‐and how we can meet the targets for carbon emission reducMons that are needed to slow global warming. It provides metrics and a path for implementaMon.” – Alex Wilson

5: AB 32 (2020) and AIA 2030 AB 32 requires California to lower greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020, the equivalent of taking approximately 28 million cars off the naMon's roads. To meet reducMon targets, the California Air Resources Board (CARB), the lead agency responsible for implemenMng the act, is following a blueprint approved in late 2008 known as the AB 32 Climate Change Scoping Plan. The plan lays out the strategy and a comprehensive set of acMons including: Expanding and strengthening energy efficiency programs and building and appliance standards.
