Thank you for including building electrification as a primary path
forward. I would like to add to points:

1) More specifically, efficiency should be tied to the
electrification of buildings pathway since it lowers the electric
power demand, has similar fixed asset financing profile.

2) The target for efficiency and electrification should be
retrofitting existing residential housing as the major GHG source
in residential housing.

3) We need to include policies that address the known barreirs to
mass adoption. Carbon price signals and rebates and the like have
not and cannot move the needle. Mandates and financing retrofit
measures via the established utility tariff billing and financing
models are the only way to address the cause of historical and
continued under-investment in efficiency and electrification: high
up front cost, long lifecycles and payback periods and information
gaps.

Thanks for the good work and for listening to residents,

Bret Andersen
