The California Energy Code (Part 6, Title 24, California Code of Regulations) serves to reduce wasteful, uneconomical, and unnecessary uses of energy for the state, and is updated every three years. California Energy Commission (CEC) staff will conduct public workshops to present proposed revisions to the Part 6 Energy Code and gather suggestions and comments.

The public is invited to participate and provide input and comments.  The meeting dates, notices, agendas, and virtual participation addresses will be provided on the CEC website.  

The Building Standards Commission (BSC), Division of the State Architect (DSA), and other state agencies will be on the working group with California Air Resources Board (CARB).

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) staff invite you to participate in a virtual public workshop to provide input on CARB’s development of a framework for measuring and then reducing the net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from building materials that are used in the State of California.  The meeting is scheduled to be conducted via Zoom from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM on September 19, 2024.
