Building Electrification StudyEnvironment

In Plain English

Richmond banned natural gas in new construction in 2021 but converting existing buildings is much more expensive. The federal Department of Energy awarded Richmond technical assistance to study citywide building energy use and assess approaches for electrifying all existing homes and businesses. This report presents findings from that federally-funded research.
