SERVICE
Policy and Program Consulting
Policy and program consulting supports public agencies, utilities, and industry organizations in shaping how buildings perform at scale. This work focuses on translating policy goals, such as energy efficiency, decarbonization, and resilience, into technical requirements, program structures, and implementation strategies that can be applied across building portfolios.
Our expertise is grounded in building science, energy modeling, and field experience, allowing policy frameworks to reflect how buildings are actually designed, constructed, and operated. This includes developing technical criteria for codes and standards, advising on incentive and funding programs, and evaluating how programs perform once deployed. Work often spans early-stage research, regulatory support, and post-implementation evaluation.
- Code and standards support provides technical analysis to inform regulatory development and updates.
- Incentive and funding program design establishes technical requirements and program structures aligned with market conditions.
- Monitoring and evaluation defines assessment frameworks and measures actual performance to inform program refinement.
- Decarbonization and climate policy studies assess pathways, impacts, and implementation considerations across jurisdictions.
