LOS ANGELES—Energy disclosure laws are changing. AB 1103 has been repealed and replaced with AB 802, a new bill that will require property owners to report and publicly disclose energy usage data. The bill is still under revision, but will likely come into effect sometime in the second half of the year. To find out more about the new regulations and what building owners need to know to comply, we sat down with Emily Murray, an attorney at Allen Matkins, for an exclusive interview.

Emily Murray: Under the prior energy use disclosure law, Assembly Bill 1103 (AB 1103), building owners were required to make energy use disclosures in connection with the sale, lease, or financing of certain buildings. AB 1103 was repealed on January 1, 2016, and replaced with Assembly Bill 802 (AB 802), codified as Public Resource Code section 25402.10.
