2030 IECC Code Cycle

Codes And Policy / Energy Codes

NBI Public Comments on the Proposed Scope and Intent 

New Buildings Institute has submitted public comments on the draft document on the scope and purpose of the IECCX standard (IECC/IRC Chapter 11/IECC Extended) for 2030. The proposed public comments cover a wide range of measures and improve the code by increasing efficiency, clarifying requirements, and creating greater flexibility for code users and local jurisdictions. We are also concerned about separating the IECC and the IECCX as distinct measures, a change that will weaken energy efficiency and resilience measures.
