🔥 Mission

Fram Energy exists to bring the energy transition to rental homes.

Why?

🔥 Vision

By 2035 the energy performance of rental homes is on par with owner-occupied homes (specific metrics: energy cost/SF, deployment of solar panels & heat pumps).

🔥 Values

💬 If it’s important, it’s on the table.

We value open, direct and honest communication; with each other, with our customers, with our partners. We believe that we’ll make the right decisions and build better relationships if the easy and the hard things are shared. To achieve this we are always building trust. One of the ways that the company lives this value is by designing our internal processes to be radically transparent.

🔑 Own your work.

People are capable of extraordinary growth when they receive ownership and agency over what they are doing. We believe in empowering everyone on the team to take responsibility of their part of the company. That means we push down decision-making rights whilst staying highly collaborative. It’s how we attract and retain great people. This means we lead/manage based on trust.

🤓 Rent your ideas.

We believe in strong beliefs held lightly; we form audacious hypotheses about the world and the future, but see them as work in progress and want to test them rigorously. In practice, this value boils down to intellectual honesty, curiosity and a relentless desire to experiment and iterate, in order to make tomorrow’s idea better instead of protecting today’s idea. The company rewards curiosity and willingness to reevaluate or discard ideas.

🎯 Play every day.

The average person spends 90,000 hours of their life at work- what a waste if that would be a joyless experience! At Fram we supercharge our outcomes and delight our stakeholders by infusing joy and play into every day. The ways we work on bringing joy to our days at Fram are curiosity, humor, thoughtfulness and a commitment to bring our full selves to work so that others can do the same. We also like to get really fired up about our mission.

🥇 First principles.

First principles means two things at Fram Energy:

  1. We like to find the best way to do something, rather than the legacy way. We work with users, partners and each other to determine the objective, variables and boundary conditions and then use that to design the best path forward.
  2. When faced with a difficult decision we like to take it back to our mission by asking “Does it help to bring the energy transition to rental homes”?
