Plan community retrofit programs with property-level evidence.
Lightspark gives cities, provinces and housing agencies a clear picture of the homes in their community — energy, carbon, retrofit potential and climate risk — and a way to help residents act on it.
Climate plans are set at the city scale. Action happens house by house.
Municipal teams are asked to show measurable progress on emissions and resilience, but the data available is usually aggregated, out of date, or disconnected from the residents who would need to make the upgrades.
HomeIQ finds the opportunity. Engage turns it into action.

Rapid Program Design
Design retrofit programs that actually get delivered.
Retrofit and resilience plans backed by address-level evidence
Higher resident uptake on municipal and regional programs
Defensible reporting on emissions reduction and risk mitigation
“If we are really going to scale energy retrofits across North America, we need to use machine learning and AI to identify highest energy and carbon using buildings, develop retrofit programs, and support homeowners in making wise decisions.”
