Clean Building Compass

Demonstrates how escalating delivery costs, clean energy policies, and competition from clean energy alternatives represent major business threats to the long-term viability of Peoples Gas and the customers who depend on affordable energy to heat their homes

Explores how the Home Energy Score Disclosure can address the split incentive in Oregon and provides actions local governments can take to support rental housing stock and its residents

Digs into the rollout of the Northeast Geothermal Drilling Centers of Excellence (Geo-CoEs) to relieve the shortage of geothermal drillers and drill rigs

Provides an overview of geothermal energy and its benefits and where thermal energy projects are in Connecticut

Provides policymakers with a guide to developing inclusive workforce strategies for building decarbonization with specific case studies across the United States

This BDC webinar examines what the 'future of gas' is and dives into the regulatory, economic, and equity challenges that arise while managing the transition from the methane gas system to clean energy infrastructure

A curated tracker and analysis of building decarbonization policies across the U.S. in 2024

Explores the potential of utility thermal energy networks (UTENs) to drive widespread decarbonization, offering benefits like emissions reductions, equitable energy access, and cost savings. It calls for legal and regulatory innovations to support UTEN development.

Reveals that replacing conventional heating and evaporative cooling systems with thermal energy networks saves millions of gallons of water each year

Explores barriers to geothermal growth in Connecticut finding that overall geothermal growth is limited by high upfront costs, mostly due to drilling

Finds that by deploying multiple fossil fuel-free technologies and collaborating closely with the existing workforce, Philadelphia can create new economic innovation opportunities for its municipally-owned gas utility and career paths for its workers while addressing climate change

Concludes that in Washington a managed and timely transition (starting by 2025) would allow gas utilities to plan for the energy transition, cut climate pollution significantly and protect low-income ratepayers
