The initiative will focus on testing scalable solutions like heat pumps and district energy systems in select communities. Officials emphasize the need to address emissions from buildings, which contribute significantly to the city’s carbon footprint. Details on participating areas and specific technologies will be outlined in upcoming announcements.
