Creating Equitable, Healthy, and Resilient Communities

Working in partnership with utilities, governments, Indigenous Nations, and other industry partners we reduce energy poverty, accelerate decarbonization, and improve housing in traditionally underserved communities across Canada and the United States.

Kambo delivers three in-house programs: Empower Me, Community Power, and the Home Upgrades Program.

Tap into a community-centered approach

Including communities in the design and delivery of solutions ensures programs and projects respond to real-life needs, perspectives, and challenges. Through a community-centered approach, Kambo helps drive change in the following areas:

AFFORDABILITY

Prioritizing affordability is key to ensuring lower-income households benefit from energy and home retrofit programs. It’s also an important step towards addressing energy poverty.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND CONSERVATION

From improving home comfort and minimizing energy costs to accelerating the low-carbon transition, the role of energy efficiency and conservation plays an integral role in enhancing people’s lives.

SAFE, COMFORTABLE, AND DURABLE HOUSING

Home comfort, safety, and efficiency have a direct impact on a household’s general wellbeing. Taking a diagnostic approach to home repairs and upgrades is essential to achieving tangible, long-lasting impacts.

JUSTICE, EQUITY, DIVERSITY, AND INCLUSION

Overcoming unique barriers experienced by historically underserved communities requires bottom-up, community-centric solutions.

DECARBONIZATION AND ELECTRIFICATION

Enabling equitable access to transportation and building electrification programs is essential to meeting climate goals and ensuring a just energy transition. Everyone has a role to play in building a low-carbon economy.
