Competition across multiple potential measure adoption choices in run based on data prepared in ecm_prep must be resolved at least to the state-level to enable more nuanced consideration of sub-federal policies to advance building decarbonization.

Proposed approach:

• Reconfigure ecm_prep to separate prepared measure data by region and report each region’s results to unique sub-folders within the generated folder.
• Reconfigure run to draw from region-specific results in (a) and separately loop through/adjust the measure data in each region for competition; then, report out each region’s results to unique sub-folders within the results folder.
• In both (a) and (b), existing cross-region outputs would be maintained as summary material, but would reflect the within-region preparation and competition configured in (a) and (b).
