To help, mySMARTLife worked with three cities to trial different strategies for making energy‑efficient home renovations more attractive. For example, an online platform was developed to provide free information on retrofitting projects and linking homeowners to companies offering related services. The project also installed smart controls in condominium buildings to help residents better manage their energy use and retrofitted an office building with solar panels and wind turbines.
