Decarbonization with Intention: Democratizing Data to Dismantle Barriers in Retrofits

To ensure equitable decarbonization, we must engage existing communities, accelerate pre-construction planning, and streamline financial pathways. By leveraging public data, we can democratize information and automate a scope relevant to the people that need it most to participate in a just clean energy transition.

This session provides case studies on how diverse community partners are using Momentum software to inform decarbonization scopes, contractor proposals, and other relevant financial products, creating an accessible pathway for cost-effective decisions to be made quickly and confidently.
