We anticipate even further emissions reductions through <br />residents learning and implementing energy conservation behaviors that are presented in our project <br />educational campaign, which includes a community workshop, energy conservation resources promoted by <br />our community organizer, and a Shadowing Day. Additionally, we will be referring homes to other energy <br />efficiency programs, resulting in increased participation in the se programs and further reduction of <br />emissions. <br /> <br />24. Please describe any avoided <br />financial costs or savings <br />related to the project and over <br />what period of time those costs <br />will be avoided/reduced: <br />By receiving energy efficiency upgrades at no cost, residents who were <br />previously paying dipropionate percentages of income towards energy <br />costs will be able to avoid high energy bills for years to come. This will <br />allow for increased incomes towards other necessities including food, <br />medicine and rent/mortgages. For example, a resident with a typical <br />1,000 sq ft inefficient home can expect to save approximately $120 a year <br />based on analysis our team has carried out on similar EE retrofits in other <br />projects. Over the life of the retrofit, this will result in an approximate <br />total savings of $1,800, and this can be even higher if the resident <br />incorporates energy conservation behaviors that are promoted by the <br />project’s education campaign. <br /> <br />Additionally, through these improvements residents will be avoiding <br />costs associated with health and safety due to poor air sealing and <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 05316BF7-95C7-4D54-82D9-7EBD5926DA4D
