Sustainability Lunch Series: Business Initiatives for Massive Home-scale Climate Action

Thursday, April 30th, 12 - 1PM

RSVP here: http://cglink.me/r705229 

With new recognition of the climate emergency, cities and towns are seeking business partners to retrofit homes for comprehensive decarbonization; applying efficiency, heat electrification, as well as solar+storage. Guests with startups will describe new services which leverage utility programs to foster high carbon impacts in low income/urban as well as suburban communities. Each has a strategy for a local, comprehensive approach that may improve retrofit economics for consumers, and increase social equity, while helping reach the penetration necessary for climate goals.
