James Metoyer | EnerCity Collaborative | Wings Conference 2024

Part of the Showcase talks at the 2024 Wings Conference in Portland, Oregon.
The goal of these talks is to invite Oregon-based projects and organizations making real headway with climate solutions that can benefit us all. Speakers share with us a short story of their project and let The Wings Conference community (and the world) know how we can help move it forward.

As founder and executive director of EnerCity Collaborative (ECC), James guides ECC’s work to ensure the financial, environmental, and health benefits of a clean energy economy are fully realized in BIPOC, underserved, and frontline communities. James works with pre-apprenticeship training programs, community-based organizations, and other nonprofits to help professionals find careers in weatherization, residential energy auditing, deep-energy retrofitting, and net-zero building.
James’s passions are teaching students about energy efficiency, bridging the gap between the medical industry and the built environment to create healthy outcomes, and working to ensure that historically underserved populations have equitable access to healthy, safe, durable, sustainable and energy efficient housing.
