New Ecology, Inc.

?? Welcome to Beacon House Square, an adaptive reuse project in Baltimore City that has been many years in the making.?? It is comprised of two historic church buildings, the oldest dating to 1893. The property will be repurposed into 80 units of permanent supportive housing and emergency shelter for Project PLASE (People Lacking Ample Shelter and?Employment), in partnership with Beacon Communities LLC. As part of the renovation the project is pursuing Enterprise Green Communities and ENERGY STAR Multifamily New Construction certification via the ASHRAE compliance pathway. This is no mean feat for an existing masonry building that will retain many of its historic features. Senior Energy Rater Alexander Haworth recently visited the site. "It was great to meet the team, walk the site with demo ongoing, and begin to identify some of the secrets and challenges that even the best made architectural drawings can never fully capture or anticipate. Beautiful building, beautiful purpose. I hope to document more in the months to come as construction progresses."

Decarbonizing Communities 2025 April 9th, 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM, Providence PowerOptions, Inc. and Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships (NEEP) have partnered to present Decarbonizing Communities 2025, a one-day workshop that will provide municipalities, housing authorities, CDCs, senior living, group homes, and other low-and-moderate-income housing organizations with the tools, strategies, and connections needed to drive community-level decarbonization for municipalities and organizations across New England.

Last week, we hosted our first in-person Housing Sustainability Collaborative Convening in Washington, D.C. One thing was clear: despite uncertainty around federal #climateresources, the affordable housing and community development finance sectors are ready to deploy capital into energy-efficient, resilient housing projects nationwide. Our Pipeline Marketplace showcased GGRF-eligible projects from our member developers and energy lending capital products from our member CDFIs—demonstrating the momentum behind this work. As our CEO Robin Hughes put it: "HPN members have long recognized that making affordable housing more energy efficient, resilient, and healthier for our climate and communities is just good business." We are grateful to our Readiness Program supporters: JPMorganChase, Wells Fargo Foundation, Invest in Our Future, TD, and our event sponsors: Amalgamated Bank, Banyan Infrastructure, and SURE. Special thanks to our panelists, including coalition members from #GGRF’s NCIF awardees, Climate United (The Community Preservation Corporation) and Power Forward Communities (Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC)), CCIA awardees Justice Climate Fund and Opportunity Finance Network, and SFA awardee GRID Alternatives and member panelists ACTION-Housing, Inc. Community Housing Capital, Inc., and National Housing Trust. Additionally, our multifamily consulting partners all Relay Network members including Elevate and New Ecology, Inc. and CDFI consulting teams from Community Sustainability Partners, Bright Power, Inc. Inc., Sustainable Capital Advisors, Forsyth Street shared insights, tools, and resources developed through the Readiness program. Stay tuned—we’ll be sharing key takeaways and resources on our Green & Healthy Communities Readiness page soon! #affordablehousing #communitydevelopment #Sustainability #GreenFinance
