The Association of Energy Conservation Professionals serves as the trade association representing Virginia's weatherization network, including 14 nonprofit weatherization agencies and dozens of private weatherization and trade contractors that provide home repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and other innovative energy solutions for Virginia's low-income and disadvantaged communities. The patrons of both HB2 and HB3 have very thoughtfully and intentionally engaged Virginia's weatherization network and taken our feedback into consideration for both bills. The feedback we provided for both bills would reduce unintended administrative burden for the weatherization service providers, and create more robust outcomes that would support the weatherization network in the near and long term, so we can better serve vulnerable Virginians with our services. AECP supports both HB2 and HB3. Thank you for your time.
