Building Retrofit Marginal Abatement Cost Curve (2D)
Interactive 2D marginal-abatement-cost-curve simulator: watch a city's building stock resolve into the classic staircase MACC chart used by real municipal retrofit programs, with a Wright's-law learning curve and cumulative CO2-avoided strip chart driven by the same budget-constrained greedy allocation as the 3D city twin.
The 3D version of this simulator renders a city's building stock as a live skyline and lets buildings light up as they're retrofitted. This 2D companion goes straight to the chart real municipal retrofit programs are actually planned against: a marginal abatement cost curve (MACC), the staircase of cost-per-ton bars sorted cheapest-first that shows exactly how far a fixed annual budget reaches into a city's total abatement potential. The same budget-constrained greedy allocation and Wright's-law bulk-procurement learning curve drive both simulators, but here the learning curve and the cumulative CO2-avoided impact tally are drawn out explicitly as their own charts rather than folded into a spatial scene — set the budget, prioritization strategy and learning rate and watch the curve, the learning-cost scatter and the impact strip settle together year by year.
Watch a city's building stock resolve into the classic marginal-abatement-cost-curve staircase used by real municipal retrofit programs: bars sorted cheapest-first by dollars-per-ton, a live budget line showing how far this year's spending reaches, a Wright's-law learning-curve scatter plot, and a cumulative CO2-avoided strip chart, all driven by the same budget-constrained greedy allocation as the 3D city twin.
