Global Warming Solutions Act(AB32) Requires an 80% cut inGreenhouse gas emissionsbelow 1990 levels by 2050 Compliance will require a cutin emissions of about 30%per person in California Efficiency strategies that payfor themselves throughenergy savings will betargeted first. Lighting isthird on the target list behindinsulation and fuel efficiency.Residential Title 24: Improved Performance, Envelope and HERS Measures5.29.15

Clean Energy & Pollution ReductionAct(SB 350) Renewable electricityprocurement goal from 33percent by 2020 to 50percent by 2030. Double statewide energyefficiency savings inelectricity and natural gasend uses by 2030. Explores reducing barriers tobusinesses providing suchservices & incentives for lowincome usersResidential Title 24: Improved Performance, Envelope and HERS Measures5.29.15

Clean Energy & PollutionReduction Act (SB 350) California - Half of its electricity from renewable energysources and double energy efficiency in all buildings by2030Residential Title 24: Improved Performance, Envelope and HERS Measures5.29.15
