Decarbonizing Affordable Multifamily Housing: All-in REALIZE Retrofits & Zero Over Time
With so many ways to retrofit a building, how can owners identify the right scope of work? What about the right timing? Even the most well-intentioned building owner may leave carbon savings on the table, choose the wrong ECM or retrofit solution, or spend more than they should on a retrofit. Despite the urgency today to electrify and decarbonize as quickly as possible, we can and should stop, think, and plan to optimize retrofits and maximize savings, while investing in health, workforce, and equity.
Join a building owner and RMI climate thinker & doer for a discussion on all-in deep energy retrofits, the REALIZE initiative, standardized retrofit solution approaches, and “Zero Over Time” portfolio management strategies.
