Carbon Markets Local Partner and Sub-Partner Outreach – Request for Information

Through this program, participants will gain the necessary knowledge, skills, and tools to effectively navigate carbon market mechanisms and contribute to sustainable development initiatives in Nepal”.

Low-carbon binders are an area of opportunity where significant action taken today can lead to tangible, realized reductions in embodied carbon in infrastructure tomorrow.The FHWA seeks to accelerate the implementation of next generation low-carbon binder technologies into engineering practice.

An example of a heat recovery solution that is novel to New York but common in other markets is an Exhaust Air Heat Pump, widely used in European markets to save energy and reduce carbon emissions. Currently, there is very limited deployment of exhaust air heat pumps in existing buildings in New York.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) utilization is a promising approach in facilitating adoption of carbon capture and carbon removal while partially diverting the need for long term transportation and underground storage of CO2. Current CO2 utilization technologies are at an early stage of development and bear technical, economic, and market uncertainty.

Real-time insights on energy end-uses throughout a building’s occupied spaces and conditioned zones can maximize whole-building energy performance, improve equipment and plant optimization, identify measures for reducing whole-building carbon footprint, enable participation in demand flexibility markets, and better inform capital projects that deliver on both energy and wellness (i.e. ventilation) goals across a whole building space.

Through the program, affordable and market-rate multifamily building owners/property managers can take a step-by-step approach towards achieving whole-building deep carbon reductions and electrification by implementing packages of low carbon upgrades that can more easily leverage existing capital improvement milestones (e.g. equipment end of life, local law compliance, etc.) to reduce the incremental cost of improvements.
