The Energy Equity Project
2022-04-20 | Deschutes Brewery Public House, 1044 NW Bond St, Bend, OR, 97701, United States
The Energy Equity Project is working to create a framework for measuring equity across energy efficiency and clean energy programs among utilities, state regulatory agencies, and other practitioners, while engaging and centering Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities and frontline communities. An equity measurement framework, set to launch in beta form in 2022, will serve environmental and climate justice advocates, practitioners, regulatory agencies, and utilities to drive more equitable investments and outcomes in energy efficiency, distributed generation and storage (i.e. solar + batteries), demand response, electrification, and electric vehicle infrastructure. The presentation will offer an overview of EEP’s work, including the energy equity issues it addresses in urban contexts, and an update on the framework being developed and the stakeholder engagement process.
