Your Comprehensive Guide to Deep Decarbonization
Retrofits

While several roadmaps and toolkits have been published, many of these are designed to apply to all building types, are not specific to a market, and/or are written from an external perspective.

The RLA Field Guide documents our partners’ experience over the past 3+ years and distills our collective learnings into an actionable process, with supporting resources, designed by and for local nonprofit affordable housing providers in the City of Los Angeles.
