Exp. Date 6/30/2019

Note: Partners are encouraged to review implementation models that have been posted to the Better Buildings Solution Center for ideas and inspiration.

Background: The U.S. Department of Energy defines an “implementation model” as a replicable pathway for the deployment of energy efficiency in an organization. The solution identified in the implementation model should address a key barrier to energy or water efficiency within your organization or the public sector and provide details to the approach your organization took to create a sustainable solution. The following framework is a tool to help you define and develop your implementation model.

Note: Review initial ideas, including your proposed goal, barrier and solution with Better Buildings Program staff before drafting a full implementation model.
