Develop a line of sight toward your decarbonized future with CoSight, the only analytics and action planning framework with ICF expertise built in.

Fast-start materials

Move quickly using established processes and documentation based on 50 years of implementing climate and energy programs.

Broad model library

Analyze interdependencies for your specific organization, sectors, programs, and technologies.

Visual dashboard

Drive action with confidence and build your case to stakeholders through clear data visualizations.

Real-world outcomes

Identify policies and programs that are specific, actionable, and measurable for your organization.

Wired for high stakes energy and GHG emissions decision-making

ICF CoSight harnesses decades of ICF’s experience designing energy and climate policies and programs—across sectors and technologies—into a unified scenario analysis environment ready for your input.

Screen at a high-level or take a granular look at sectors of interest. Compare alternative scenarios and building an optimized pathway to an end goal. Assess relative costs of integrated reduction solutions. Then educate external stakeholders and set priorities to make your business case and drive action.

Decarbonization

Use the calculation power of CoSight to visualize programs that meet your regulatory requirements even while forecasted factors are shifting. Experiment with scenarios to define the right degree of electric energy and vehicle use while staying in the range of feasibility for your operation. Then see your long term plan accounting for building, transport, and power generation on the same platform.

Electrification

Stay ahead of customers’ rush to electric energy by forecasting demand and tuning delivery. Visualize investment strategies and programs to address increasing usage in electric vehicles, building heating and cooling, and industrial processes while still keeping customer cost down and your profits up. CoSight tracks the policy and technology factors of your electrified future while informing adjacent issues like decarbonization and the role of gas based solutions.

Distributed energy resources (DERs), energy efficiency, and demand response

Visualize how DERs will help you shape and manage customer-sited assets to benefit your customers and the grid. Determine the value of individual or a portfolio of DERs. Automatically account for broad factors like photovoltaic, storage, demand response, efficiency, and more. Design, optimize, and deploy flexible DER programs that will scale and help you achieve your clean energy goals.

Customer insights and incentives

Understand how end-users and stakeholders value energy efficiency, resilience, reliability, rate-affordability, and GHG emissions reductions. CoSight leverages behavioral economics, market research, and years of participation experience to understand willingness-to-pay to various offers, initiatives, and policies ensuring your programs are supported and impactful. CoSight further helps you develop rebates and incentives that are “just right”, and informs evolution of program offers over time.
