I am submitting this session proposal on behalf of Adam Hasz at Department of Energy
Proposed Session Description
Residential Retrofits for Energy Equity (R2E2) provides deep technical assistance to state, local, and tribal governments as well as community-based organizations to jumpstart energy upgrades for single family and multifamily affordable housing. ACEEE, Elevate, Emerald Cities Collaborative, HR&A, and People's Climate received philanthropic funds to lower utility bills, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve residents’ health, create good-paying local jobs, and help advance racial equity.
Why is this session important?
This session will inspire new strategies and opportunities for diverse teams to scale deep energy retrofits and decarbonization efforts, while maximizing new federal sources to do so.
Diversity and Inclusiveness
R2E2 has "Equity" in its name - it is working with diverse stakeholders across the country to develop training programs, financing models, guidance on economic inclusions, etc.
Learning Objectives

Comments about your speaker roster
Adam Hasz asked if I could submit this on his behalf. I think they will have others from Elevate, Emerald Cities, and/or HR&A join - any of which would be great speakers. This session is informational -- sharing updates/efforts from DOE BTO relevant to the NESEA community.
