Washington Legislature Considers State-Level Natural Gas Ban


Thursday, February 4, 2021
Fossil-based natural gas may be headed for a reckoning, at least in Washington State. Not long ago, natural gas was seen by many as the key “bridge fuel” necessary to transition our society away from oil and coal. Natural gas has its upsides; most significantly, it burns more efficiently and emits fewer pollutants than coal.
1 Yet burning natural gas still emits greenhouse gases (GHG), including methane, a potent climate pollutant. According to EPA, methane accounts for approximately 10% of the GHG emissions in the United States.
2 That is a problem for states like Washington that have called for zero carbon emissions in the power sector by 2045 and have also enacted laws aimed at reducing GHG emissions throughout other sectors. ....

And it’s clear that Washington is not on track to reach its 2030 commitment target or its deeper decarbonization emissions target of being carbon neutral by 2050 unless buildings are rapidly electrified.
The report indicates that economy-wide decarbonization with the least societal costs would require a 95 percent reduction in building sector emissions by 2050 and the energy code [being] accelerated to become zero energy, zero-carbon and all-electric no later than the 2027 code. While Washington is right about the importance of amending building codes to meet climate goals, the code should not wait until 2027 to go all-electric. ....
