Healthy Homes and Residential Electrification Amendment Act of 2023

This bill creates the Breathe Easy Program within the District of Columbia's Department of Energy and the Environment to provide free residential electrification retrofits to low-income households and subsidized upgrades for moderate-income households. The program aims to replace gas appliances with electric ones in homes, with a goal of completing 30,000 retrofits by 2040, while also requiring the department to partner with nonprofits for contractor training. To support this initiative, the legislation exempts the value of these improvements from certain building code definitions and income taxes, and it extends existing solar program benefits to subscribers of the new electrification projects. Additionally, the bill establishes a Green Building Advisory Council to advise the Mayor on how to implement the program effectively.
