eLab In Action

On Nov. 7 & 8, RMI will host a charrette in Fort Collins, Colorado, aimed at helping the community's FortZED project achieve its ambitious net zero goals.
The event will convene key stakeholders from the local community and around the country to identify opportunities to deploy and integrate local resources—including energy efficiency, demand response, renewable generation, and energy storage—to meet the net zero energy goal. More broadly, the charrette will also address how the FortZED project can help to catalyze progress toward the city's climate and economic development goals.
