The Triangle <br />Sustainability Partnership, made up of staff from participating local governments, will focus on <br />strategic design and planning that is most relevant for this region, vendor engagement, community <br />education, and trust-building with local leaders. This Triangle Sustainability Partnership specifically <br />focuses on enhancing resources and expertise that eases the navigation process for residents <br />(homeowners, renters, or other residential property owners), as they seek guidance while <br />embracing their electrification journey. Using shared resources and vendors, the Electrify the <br />Triangle Sustainability Partnership will create a platform that can offer local communities, <br />homeowners, renters, and other residential property owners the ability to navigate various <br />program offerings, provide education and outreach opportunities, and find vetted and qualified <br />contractor(s) to support the electrification of residential units. This will be coupled with oversight <br />into how homeowners can capitalize maximizing the usage of various grants, rebates, tax credits, <br />and energy savings that may be applicable. This will allow homeowners to make informed decisions <br />in a more cost-effective way – while also promoting climate, social, and economic benefits <br />throughout the region. <br /> <br />There is an interest in strategizing how the Triangle Sustainability Partnership may be able to <br />increase access to electrification and clean energy technologies for moderate income households <br />(and low-to-moderate income, if possible). <br /> <br />Triangle Region Model <br /> <br />The Triangle Sustainability Partnership has identified the list of priority electrification and clean <br />energy technologies below to focus on for the first phase of implementation. This list is not <br />exhaustive and there is the opportunity to expand at the recommendation and approval of the <br />Triangle Sustainability Partnership. Additional work may include increased support for low-to- <br />moderate income qualifying residents. <br /> <br />Any changes or additions to the Scope of Services must be approved in writing by both parties prior to <br />implementation. If such changes materially affect the cost or schedule, the parties shall negotiate an <br />adjustment to the contract price and/or schedule before the additional work begins. <br />Docusign Envelope ID: FE7591C6-F85F-8EB3-812A-D3E9FE0DF997
