Webinar: International Energy Conservation Code Adoption Process and Impact @ Online
Jun 18 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
MAPC will be hosting a webinar on Monday, June 18, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM that will focus on connecting municipalities to the power of the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) adoption process. As the new IECC will largely be adopted by Massachusetts, the energy provisions included in the IECC have a substantial impact on the MA state building code and climate change more broadly. Municipalities can register to vote on the IECC, and empower important clean energy code updates to gain adoption. The webinar will feature Bill Fay of the Energy Efficient Codes Coalition (EECC) and Ian Finlayson of the Department of Energy Resources (DOER) Energy Efficiency Division.
