REEO (Residential Energy Efficiency Ordinance)

The Residential Energy Efficiency Ordinance (REEO) is a regulation that promotes energy-saving upgrades in existing homes. It requires homeowners to assess their property's energy performance and implement cost-effective efficiency improvements, such as upgrading insulation, windows, or HVAC systems. The goal is to reduce energy consumption, lower utility bills, and decrease environmental impact. REEO aims to make homes more sustainable and comfortable while encouraging responsible energy use through standardized assessments and incentivized upgrades. It helps create healthier living environments and supports broader community efforts toward climate change mitigation.
