Summary

Efforts to mandate building electrification have evolved since summer 2019 when Berkeley, Calif., passed a nation-leading gas ban. States and cities are now pursuing a wide array of pathways to restrict fossil fuel use in buildings, while at least 20 states have taken steps to preempt local gas bans.

S&P Global will convene a panel of experts to discuss the past, present and future of the policy push. Topics reviewed will include:

  • Beyond the Berkeley ban: The many policy pathways cities are pursuing
  • New frontiers: Where gas bans are likely and unlikely to appear
  • Opposition: Building coalitions and passing laws to block gas bans
  • The next step: The push to electrify existing buildings
