Northeast

Emerald Cities Northeast grew from a 2018 collaboration with ECC National and environmental organization Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI). Under this partnership, the region’s first program – the E-Contractor Academy program – launched in Fall 2019 and supported 20 diverse construction firms with business and technical skills training in the green construction industry. ECC Northeast continues to provide the E-Contractor Academy program as well as other programs related to equitable building electrification & decarbonization and community climate resilience with the support of regional partners including government agencies, labor organizations, businesses, environmental organizations, affordable housing owners and training providers.
