A Policymaker's Guide to Scaling Home Energy Upgrades
October 1, 2015
This Guide is designed to help state and local policymakers to take full advantage of new policy developments by providing them with a comprehensive set of tools to support launching or accelerating residential energy efficiency programs. It is written primarily for state and local policymakers, including state and local executives, legislators, public utility commissioners, and the staff who advise them.
The Guide focuses on four categories of policies that have proven particularly effective in providing a framework within which residential energy efficiency programs can thrive:
- Incentives and financing
- Making the value of energy efficiency visible in the real estate market
- Data access and standardization
- Supporting utility system procurement of energy efficiency.
