BILL NUMBER: S5038
TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the energy law, in relation to
authorizing the use of cool roofs on new or substantially renovated
state-owned buildings
PURPOSE : To conserve energy through a cool roofs program.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS : This legislation amends section 13-105 of the
energy law as added by chapter 565 of the laws of 2008.
JUSTIFICATION : The temperature of a cool roof is lower on hot sunny
days than that of a conventional roof, and therefore reduces the
energy required to take down the temperature of the building via air
conditioning. While dark surfaces absorb the sun's energy and become
hot, light-colored surfaces reflect solar energy and stay cooler.
Reducing energy loads through simple and cost effective methods, such
as cool roofing, will save the state money for the escalating long
term costs of energy.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY : This is a new bill.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS : To be determined.
EFFECTIVE DATE : This act shall take effect on the same date and in
the same manner as chapter 565 of the laws of 2008, as amended, takes
