HB3650

UTIL-2050 HEAT DECARBONIZATION

Chamber Passed·4/8/25

Illinois HB3650 establishes a 2050 heat decarbonization standard for gas utilities.

HB3650 mandates that gas utilities in Illinois transition to 100% zero emissions by 2050. It sets annual emission reduction obligations starting in 2030, requiring utilities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fossil methane combustion. Utilities must meet these obligations through emission reductions from their own customers and clean heat credits. The bill also establishes a statewide navigator program to assist building owners and renters with electrification and energy efficiency.
