The City of Atlanta uses the Greenlink Equity Map (GEM) with their Clean Energy Atlanta Board Task Force to understand the energy burden issues in different neighborhoods across Atlanta and how the burden differs throughout the city.
The main focus of the task force is on decarbonizing Atlanta through a net-zero buildings initiative and a committee focused on equity with climate action directing energy priorities in order for the City to reach their 100% clean energy goal.
We have been leading committee meetings to help plan and strategize neighborhood planning units as well as preparing the City for state level advocacy.
For more information about this task force, you can contact Matt Cox at mcox@greenlinkanalytics.org.

The detailed explanation of how Atlanta is leveraging the Greenlink Equity Map (GEM) for clean energy planning is very insightful. I particularly appreciated the focus on equity and neighborhood-specific strategies, which aligns with some of the thoughtful curation approaches seen on sites like https://www.gourmetgiftbasketstore.com/ . It’s always valuable to see clear examples of data-driven initiatives making a real community impact.
