California AB2200 allows controlled environment horticulture spaces to use thermal curtains and other technologies instead of double-paned windows.

California AB2200 amends the Health and Safety Code to allow controlled environment horticulture spaces, such as commercial greenhouses, to use thermal curtains, thermal screens, shade cloths, or equivalent technologies instead of double-paned windows. This change aims to reduce costs, encourage sustainable practices, and support California's agricultural sector. The California Energy Code will consider these alternatives compliant if the California Energy Commission finds them to be as or more energy efficient. This bill applies to all cities in California, including charter cities.
