Building Performance Standards
Nationwide, building owners face new sustainability mandates
States and cities across the country are passing building performance standards (BPS) laws that require building owners to reduce their carbon footprint. Laws in six regions are set to take effect by 2025, and other regions are expected to pass legislation in the near future. Most laws have deadlines of 2050, but legislation varies by region and building type, so there's not a one-size-fits-all solution.
Fortunately, Johnson Controls specializes in building performance excellence. Our sustainability experts can help you create and execute a custom compliance plan for your buildings that's timely and cost-effective.
Several regions with BPS bills in place are indicated below, with more to come. Click your region to get details on the new law and links to additional resources. For policies and requirements that affect federal buildings, download our guide.
