SMART Energy Efficiency Standards Act Strengthening Manufactured...
A bill to amend the Energy Policy and Conservation Act with respect to regional standards for furnaces, central air conditioners, and heat pumps.
This bill proposes to change the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to update regional standards for furnaces, central air conditioners, and heat pumps. These standards are meant to improve energy efficiency and reduce energy costs for consumers.
The changes would affect manufacturers and consumers of these heating and cooling systems. Manufacturers would need to comply with the updated standards, which could impact production costs and product availability. Consumers might see lower energy bills and more efficient appliances on the market.
SB4892 was introduced on June 24, 2026, and was immediately referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources for further review. As of now, the bill is in its early stages of the legislative process, and no further action has been taken.
