Energy readiness
Strong86/100
Strong policy and building-efficiency direction support the transition score.
Retrofit need
High
Older building stock makes efficiency upgrades a major lever.
Climate stressor
Urban heat
Heat adaptation is a major quality-of-life and energy-demand issue.

This HTML table mirrors the visible score cards so important comparison data is never trapped in a browser-only chart.
| Metric | Value | Context |
|---|---|---|
| Energy readiness | 86 / 100 | Policy ambition and retrofit focus support the score. |
| Primary transition lever | Building efficiency | Retrofits can reduce emissions and improve comfort. |
| Climate stressor | Heat | Summer heat increases adaptation and cooling importance. |
Explanation
Paris energy readiness depends on existing buildings, clean heat, and heat adaptation. The model rewards cities that connect emissions cuts to resident comfort.
Read this module with the main city profile because single-topic pages can miss tradeoffs. A city with a high energy score can still have housing pressure, and a city with strong opportunity can still carry health exposure risk.
