This initiative will support BlocPower’s work to create an open-source energy model data set and recommendation engine for more than 100 million buildings across America, in partnership with Historically Black Colleges and Universities and other Minority Serving Institutions. The “Building Data Collective” will compile building data that is often fragmented and inaccessible, creating a database that all Data Collaborative members can use to analyze and highlight buildings in need of energy efficiency/clean-tech interventions. The project will prioritize facilitating and delivering environmental justice.
