The Status of Energy Codes in Colorado
Colorado is a home rule state so energy codes in Colorado vary
by local jurisdiction. There is no statewide energy code.
However, an energy code enacted by a Colorado municipality
or county may be in effect. Many energy-efficiency oriented
organizations recommend the adoption of the International
Residential Code (IRC) or the International Energy Conservation
Code (IECC). Adoption of one or both of these progressive
energy codes is now the trend among Colorado jurisdictions,
although some areas may have the older Model Energy Code (MEC)
in place.
