Faber O’Connor, the city’s chief sustainability officer, said eliminating planet-warming carbon emissions from buildings may not be as hard as it sounds. She expects building codes and rebates to do the bulk of the work, with homes and businesses installing electric appliances over time as gas-powered appliances break down.
“Our policy goals cannot be met without hydrogen, is my view,” Brouwer said in an interview last month.Construction manager Chris Smith shows off an induction cooktop at an all-electric, solar-powered townhome development being built by City Ventures in Bellflower, on March 25. A study released this month by the consulting firm Energy and Environmental Economics found that newly built all-electric homes in California, and that the vast majority of single-family homes with gas furnaces and air conditioners would save money by replacing those systems with electric heat pumps.
“It means we have 30 years to transition the entire building stock to zero emissions. That’s a challenge, and it’s important to get started now,” he said.

I just want to point out that Hydrogen Fuel Cells need to go away for good. In the best case scenario they are 50% less efficient than battery electric vehicles ... and they take out oxygen from the air to make electricity+water... we need that oxygen for breathing I think 🤔
And yet manages, somehow, to not say one word about how we get 1 car, let alone tens of thousands, off the road entirely, electric or otherwise.
