Decarbonization

Description
- Projects in this scope area may include installing new central heating plants, ground or air source heat pumps, or high-efficiency gas boilers; decoupling of space and water heating systems; installing circulating, condensing, and other pumps, or fan coils for heat exchange; replacing distribution piping, valves, and traps; and replacing and/or removing apartment radiators. The full, detailed scope of work for this project including any additional work areas will be updated here after alignment with project stakeholders through scoping and design activities.
Baseline
- Evaluate options to invest in systems that contribute to the energy-efficiency, performance, and resiliency of buildings and identify options beyond repairs-in-kind to existing under-performing, obsolete, or costly and difficult-to maintain systems. [COMPMOD]
- PACT Partners should identify a long-term path to electrification. All costs associated with repairs-in-kind and costs associated with electrification-ready infrastructure anticipating future electrification should be identified and cross-walked against the PNA and CNA for each site. [PACT]
