The Biden administration’s Department of Energy (DOE) unveiled its first-ever national blueprint for aggressively decarbonizing the U.S. residential and commercial building sectors on April 2.

This means there is a chance that construction companies, building owners, and local governments, who may oppose the measures and goals listed in the plan, will not act upon it.
