New Energy Rules Are Here—Lower Your Costs Now
California’s new energy code took effect this year, and it’s already changing how commercial buildings are designed, operated, and upgraded.
For property teams, this means higher expectations around efficiency, electrification, and day-to-day building performance.
What You Need to Know
The updated state energy code applies to new construction and many building upgrades, pushing properties toward more efficient systems and stricter performance standards.
Even if your building isn’t undergoing major construction, these changes are shaping:
- Tenant expectations
- Future capital improvements
- Day-to-day operational decisions
This is not a future issue, it’s already impacting how buildings operate.
How It Impacts You
For commercial real estate professionals, these new requirements add another layer of complexity to building operations.
You’re now balancing:
