 On July 1, 2005, the 2003 International Energy Conservation Code became the Nebraska Energy Code. The Code applies to all new buildings, or renovations of or additions to any existing buildings. However, only those renovations that will cost more than 50 percent of the replacement cost of the building must comply with the Code.
If your town or county has not adopted an energy code or does not wish to adopt an energy code, the Nebraska Energy Office will enforce the Code in your jurisdiction.
