Maryland’s Building Energy Performance Standards (BEPS) regulation is in effect. Did you know that buildings 35,000 square feet and larger (excluding the parking garage area) are “covered” by the regulation and need to comply? The goal is for covered buildings to efficiently achieve net-zero direct greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. Efficient net-zero direct emissions buildings improve comfort, resilience, and reliability, and provide savings on energy costs compared to old, inefficient buildings.
To learn more about the regulation, compliance, planning, exemptions, and available resources, join the Community Connects monthly information and Q&A session hosted by the Maryland Local Government Climate Action Support Program and administered by the University of Maryland Environmental Finance Center (EFC). This meeting will be held via Zoom on May 13 at 2:00 pm. To join the May 13 Community Connects on BEPS please register here:
