Renovating Regulation to Electrify Buildings: A Guide for the Handy Regulator

Existing policies and regulations covering energy use in buildings may have served us well in the past, but now some of them create unnecessary barriers to beneficial electrification. Addressing these challenges will help realize the full potential of electrified, flexible, grid-integrated buildings. A new guidebook, a collaboration between Regulatory Assistance Project and Synapse Energy Economics, details some of the changes we need.

Where We Work

We focus primarily on the world's four largest power markets: China, the European Union, India, and the United States.
