13 other end uses.

14 (2) The decarbonization of buildings must be pursued 

15 in a manner that is affordable and accessible, preserves

17 and experience of the existing utility union workforce.

18 (3) Thermal energy networks have the potential to

20 and help achieve the goals of Public Act 102-662 (also 

21 known as the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act).
