Abstract

Emitting more than one fifth of the State of Minnesota’s overall emissions, the residential building sector is a top priority for decarbonization to meet the state’s goals in the Next Generation Energy Act. Based on current levels of energy usage, the state is expected to fall short of these goals by nearly 100 million tons of CO2e by 2050. At the same time, many Minnesotan households are energy burdened, paying significant fractions of income for home space heating and energy expenses.
