How We Work

KERAMIDA partners with cities, regions, districts, and campuses to create strategies and plans that are science-based, people-centered, and implementation-ready. By uniting stakeholder voices with data-driven strategies, we deliver roadmaps that not only reduce emissions but also strengthen resilience, economic prosperity, environmental stewardship, and long-term quality of life.

Climate Action Services for Cities

We provide a full suite of services that generate measurable sustainability outcomes and community co-benefits:

Municipal & Community-Wide GHG Inventories

Our climate experts build a comprehensive emissions profile for your city, covering transportation, buildings, energy use, waste, and more. We establish robust baselines for municipal and community emissions through standardized methodologies (BASIC, BASIC+) and advanced modeling tools. These inventories provide the foundation for measurable reductions for long-term climate action.

Emissions Modeling

Using ClearPath 2.0 or other proprietary models, we project future emissions, test reduction scenarios, and establish science-based targets. Our modeling helps communities understand the pace and scale of transformation needed to meet climate goals.

Target Setting & Strategy Development

KERAMIDA’s target-setting service delivers data-driven, science-based GHG reduction targets, milestones, and progress metrics aligned with your city’s climate vision.

Climate Action Planning

We create comprehensive, community-driven Climate Action Plans that unify stakeholder input, technical analysis, and sector-specific strategies into a clear roadmap for reducing emissions and building resilience.

Implementation Roadmapping

We provide step-by-step guidance to move from strategy to execution, including prioritization, funding pathways, co-benefits analysis, and defined roles and responsibilities.

Report Finalization & Design

We produce custom-designed, clear, accessible reports that communicate strategies, highlight unique community priorities, and inspire ongoing action.

Community Engagement & Education

Our community engagement approach centers on inclusive participation. We design community workshops, listening sessions, surveys, ambassador programs, and interactive tools that elevate local voices, build public trust, and prepare stakeholders to carry implementation forward.

Sustainability Storytelling

We film and produce engaging documentary-style videos that bring climate strategies to life, highlight community priorities, and inspire ongoing action. From short social media-friendly videos to more in-depth storytelling, these valuable media assets amplify stakeholder voices, showcase community engagement, and strengthen your city’s Climate Action Plan communications.

Monitoring, Reporting & Transparency

We create custom ClearPath 2.0 dashboards and reporting systems that make data transparent, actionable, and easy to communicate. We also develop Power BI dashboards for detailed performance tracking.
