HB 1801

Requires state facilities to implement cost-effective energy efficiency measures; directs Hawaii state energy office to collect all state-owned facilities' utility bill and energy usage data and make this data publicly available; establish a goal for the State to achieve at least a 30% reduction in the electricity consumption of state facilities; provide that certain agencies perform energy efficiency retrofitting; require design of all new building construction to maximize energy and water efficiency and energy generation potential and to use building materials that reduce the carbon footprint of the project beginning July 1, 2023.

HB 1801 requires and establishes deadlines for state facilities, except facilities under 10,000 sf, to implement cost‐effective energy efficiency measures. The bill also directs the Hawaii State Energy Office to collect utility bill and energy usage data for state‐owned buildings and to make the data publicly available. And beginning 7/1/2023, where feasible and cost‐effective, the bill requires the design of all new state building construction to maximize energy and water efficiency, maximize energy generation potential, and use building materials that reduce the carbon footprint of the project.
