From Natural Gas to Electricity
The City of Bellingham’s Climate Action Task Force was launched in September 2018 with the purpose of determining the feasibility, costs, and impacts of the City’s 100% renewable energy ambitions. The Task Force released preliminary recommendations for the building sector in June 2019, which included mandatory conversion of space and water heating systems by 2035, plus electrification of all commercial, residential, and renter occupied heating systems, and solar PV installation to cover at least 50% of the building footprint through rooftop or offsite solar.
