An Evaluation of Energy Efficiency and Its Applicability to Low Income, Inner City Groups in West Broadway, Winnipeg, Manitoba
Description:
Half of the properties in West Broadway are rental properties. West Broadway's socio-economic demographics such as high unemployment, low incomes, and higher crime rates have resulted in the City of Winnipeg's designation of "Major Improvement Area." West Broadway's local development corporation is helping revitalize housing and the neighbourhood. To date, energy efficiency has been underutilized in retrofits by low income groups and local community groups due to factors including retrofit costs, lack of targeted information, and barriers to program access.
