Understanding and complying with California’s Green Building Standards Code—better known as the CALGreen Checklist—is an essential part of any new construction or renovation project in the state. This mandatory checklist ensures that building practices meet California’s sustainability goals. At Alternative Energy Systems (AES), we simplify the CALGreen compliance process with our expert knowledge, fast service, and professional documentation.

CALGreen Checklist California: What It Means for You

The CALGreen Checklist is California’s first-in-the-nation mandatory green building code. It sets the standards for planning, design, energy efficiency, water conservation, material conservation, and environmental quality. Whether you’re developing a residential home or a commercial building, adhering to this checklist is required for permit approval in California.
