(a) All agencies under the Governor’s jurisdiction shall:
(1) Collectively reduce overall energy consumption by 3% per year, and 21% by 2025 from 2017 levels.
(2) Replace 25% of the state passenger car fleet with battery electric and plug-in electric hybrid cars by 2025 and evaluate opportunities for the reduction of vehicle miles traveled and incorporation of new technology where appropriate.
(3) Procure renewable energy to offset at least 40% of the Commonwealth’s annual electricity use and evaluate opportunities to source electricity through Pennsylvania Certified Tier I credits, and/or direct purchase of renewable power generation sited within the Commonwealth.
(b) Any new building construction project, build-to-suit leased building, or renovation project by a Commonwealth agency that costs more than 50% of the replacement cost of the building, where the design of the project commences after the effective date of the Executive Order, shall be designed and constructed as a high-performance building achieving a 10% reduction in energy consumption over ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1.2016.
