Since then, 45 municipalities representing about 30% of the state\u2019s population have voted to adopt its guidelines. The code is already active in 33 of these communities and scheduled to take effect over the next year in another 12.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is just an astounding statistic to me,\u201d said climate advocate Lisa Cunningham, one of the founders of decarbonization nonprofit ZeroCarbonMA. \u201cThe rollout has been, quite frankly, amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Massachusetts has long been a leader in using opt-in building codes to push for decarbonization of the built environment. In 2009, the state introduced the country\u2019s first stretch code, an alternative version of the building code that includes more stringent energy efficiency requirements. Municipalities must vote to adopt the stretch code, and the vast majority have done so: As of June, just 8.5% of residents lived in the 50 towns and cities without a stretch code.<\/p>\n<p>The specialized stretch code takes this approach a step farther. The goal is to create a code that will help achieve target emissions reductions from 2025 to 2050, when the state aims to be carbon-neutral. In 2021, the legislature called on the state to create an additional opt-in code that would get close to requiring net-zero carbon emissions from new construction.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Reprinted from
