The Green Upgrade Calculator: A New Economic Modeling Tool for Home Decarbonization

This session will present RMI’s new freely available economic modeling software for different home decarbonization technologies (e.g., rooftop solar, battery storage, weatherization, air-source heat pumps, heat pump water heaters), demonstrate how different types of energy professionals can leverage it (e.g., estimating bill impacts of whole home versus hybrid air-source heat pumps), and visualize results for different retrofit types across the northeast (e.g., percent of homes that can cost-effectively electrify).
