and Energy
Mission
Integrate resilience and equity considerations to create climate action goals that are meaningful and relevant.
Climate Action Planning
Blue Strike approaches climate planning in three stages: (1) Assist the organization to analyze and understand gaps in their current sustainability framework for facilities and operations, (2) Quantify the costs and year-by-year emissions reduction results of specific sustainability strategies which address gaps in the current framework, and (3) Prepare a capital improvements budget and action plan to guide the strategic implementation processes. Grounded in stakeholder engagement throughout the planning process, we work closely with each client to further scope the desired outcomes at the outset of each project, setting a guiding constellation for the path to successful implementation.

Net Zero Emissions
Carbon neutrality commitments target a set of actions that will bring greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated by an organization to a net zero sum. Strategies include policy formation, energy efficiency, achieving 100% building electrification, transitioning to renewable energies, replacing fossil fueled vehicles with electric options, and implementing behavior change programs.

Investment Decision Making
Blue Strike’s approach to scenario analysis allows our clients to conduct detailed comparisons of investment scenarios based on existing, planned, and future carbon mitigation measures, such as capital improvements, energy and water management, waste disposal, transportation, etc. Our sophisticated Climate and Energy Scenario Analysis (CESA) tool provides an integrated benefit-cost assessment of many programs and/or projects allowing clients to prioritize investments based on financial performance (including, Net Present Value, Internal Rate of Return), as well as other key performance indicators (KPIs). Our proprietary CESA tool and related processes also allow for tracking of program and/or project performance after implementation.
