Our Prize-Winning Approach
QuitCarbon has won some big awards from the US Department of Energy for our unique service and results in accelerating home electrification upgrades. Regional government agencies such as 3C-REN also recognize our value via strategic partnerships.
The 60-Day Home Electrification Campaign
3C-REN aims to inspire local homeowners to ditch gas and go electric. To advance their Home Energy Savings programs, they needed to gauge the effectiveness of their outreach methods and identify how to invest their resources better.
With a compressed timeline and modest budget, QuitCarbon created and implemented a highly effective campaign to promote home electrification – and generated valuable insights to inform 3C-REN's future campaigns.
Affordable, Equitable Electrification... Made EAS-E
The Equitable and Affordable Solutions to Electrification (EAS-E) prize from the US Department of Energy focuses on innovative solutions that help lower the barriers to affordable home electrification.
QuitCarbon was one of six companies to win the competitive prize for Phase 1, which included a financial grant along with access to collaborate with leading national research labs.
Buildings Upgrade Prize
The Buildings UP (Buildings Upgrade) Prize from the US Department of Energy supports the transformation of existing U.S. buildings into more energy-efficient and clean energy-ready homes, commercial spaces, and communities.
QuitCarbon won this prize in collaboration with the San Francisco Department of the Environment for our project proposal to upgrade 200 homes in disadvantaged communities with heat pump water heaters in 200 days. We are using funds from this prize to conduct research and develop an implementation plan that will bring this project to life.
