Why it Matters: Energy Audits by the Numbers
Federal, State and Local
- More than 5,000,000 small commercial buildings in the U.S. -- that is approximately 90% of the total commercial building stock!
- To reach bipartisan climate goals, we need to conduct approximately 30,000 energy audits per month. Estimates have the current rate at approximately 1,000/month, including large commercial buildings.
- Small commercial buildings account for approximately 50% of the energy use by the sector. According to data from the Department Of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency, that's:
- More energy than all but 14 countries produce
- Equivalent to carbon emissions emitted from 90 million passenger vehicles. That's about one third of all the cars in America.
Gemini's Approach
- Swift & Inclusive Transition to a Clean Economy | Rapidly deploy energy audits for small commercial buildings, at scale. The more buildings we can audit, the quicker we can help your municipality transition to a clean-energy economy.
Gemini’s platform – Conserve – automates the identification, calculation, and reporting of potential savings. Conserve provides the customer a report that calculates the savings they should see on their bills. This reduces the time and energy per customer as well as simplifies reporting for regulatory agencies. - Equitable Workforce Development | As a minority-owned business that prioritizes underserved communities, we understand the importance of centering communities of color who have long-been overlooked by the energy and environmental sector.
- Direct Impact : Hire & train local workers
- Indirect Impact: Gemini works with trusted, minority contractors & vendors to carry out the energy efficiency upgrades your buildings require. Investing in Energy Efficiency means supporting the growth of multiple sectors at once!
- Improve Grid Resiliency & Reach Your Climate Goals | Serious climate plans require serious solutions. Simultaneously eliminate harmful GHG emissions by reducing:
