The Climate Justice Work Group, in particular, provided a memo on Februand on Aug. These recommendations and principles, in addition to the policy evaluation criteria in the GWSA, were important considerations in the development of policies for the 2030 CECP. In 20, the IAC and associated Work Groups contributed policy recommendations and guiding principles towards the development of the 2030 CECP. The IAC has several Work Groups, including Climate Justice, Buildings, Transportation, Electricity, and Land Use and Nature-Based Solutions. The necessary transformations to achieve Net Zero in 2050 touch lives across the Commonwealth, and the actions in the next decade are critical to ensure a least cost, strategic, and equitable transformation. To help ensure an equitable and strategic transition towards Net Zero, EEA worked with stakeholders across the Commonwealth to ensure that development of the 2025/2030 CECP is an inclusive policy planning effort.ĮEA has been convening the GWSA Implementation Advisory Committee (IAC) since 2012 as a primary public body for advising EEA on greenhouse gas reduction measures. Meeting our aggressive interim emissions reduction targets and achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050 requires that we press forward with policy implementation while continuing to plan. At the same time, the Administration is continuing implementation of the strategies, policies, and actions outlined in the Interim 2030 CECP. In compliance with the new law, EEA will develop and finalize the 2025/2030 CECP by the deadline. It also specifies Jas the deadline for the adoption of the 20 emissions limits and sublimits, as well as the release of a comprehensive plan to achieve those limits. The 2030 emissions limit shall be at least 50% below the 1990 baseline, the 2040 emissions limit shall be at least 75% below the 1990 level, and a 2050 emissions limit that achieves at least net zero statewide greenhouse gas emissions, provided that in no event shall the level of emissions in 2050 be higher than a level 85% below the 1990 level. On March 26, 2021, the Governor signed into law An Act Creating A Next-Generation Roadmap for Massachusetts Climate Policy, which requires the EEA Secretary to set interim emissions limit and sector-specific sublimits every 5 years.
The 2025/2030 CECP is available in English, Español, 中文, Português, Kreyòl ayisyen, and Tiếng Việt. The 2025/2030 CECP exhibits the confidence that Massachusetts can help lead the clean energy transition and that doing so will mean more well-paying jobs, improved public health, reduced consumer costs, and better quality of life for all residents.
It expresses the Commonwealth’s plans for 20 that maximize the ability to realize a 2050 future in which the heat in homes, power in vehicles, and electric grid can all operate with a minimum reliance on fossil fuels, and natural and working lands can be protected from conversion and better managed and restored to enhance carbon sequestration. The 2025/2030 CECP is rooted in the understanding that climate change poses a unique and potentially irreversible threat to the well-being of society. The 2025/2030 CECP represents the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ comprehensive plans to achieve aggressive emissions reduction in 20. On June 30th 2022, the Secretary of the EEA released the Clean Energy and Climate Plan for 20.
