Michel is intimate with Statistics Canada data, and understands how to present detailed data to inform municipal policies and programs.  For the LEAP project, Michel is supported by Maryam Rezaei and Abhilash Kantamneni in the definition and development of neighbourhood-scale energy poverty measures to be cross-tabulated with household indicators correlated with disproportionately higher energy burdens.  Michel will be developing the LEAP project's equity and energy poverty baseline mapping tool, a fundamental resource to ready paritcipating cities and their partners for the design of equitable clean energy programs.
