Martinez, California – The Contra Costa County Department of Conservation and Development has unveiled the draft Clean Energy Roadmap for Existing Buildings, offering community members an opportunity to help shape the county’s clean energy future. The Roadmap outlines how Contra Costa County can transition existing buildings to clean energy sources, with the goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving indoor air quality.

The draft is now available for public review and comment. Residents are encouraged to visit contracosta.ca.gov/10403/Clean-Energy-Roadmap to read the full plan and submit their feedback by Thursday, April 24, 2025.
