Building Performance Association Launches National Search for Next Chief Executive Officer

The Building Performance Association, an industry group that supports contractors, utilities, nonprofits, and others working on home energy efficiency and weatherization (sealing and insulating homes to cut energy waste), is searching for a new Chief Executive Officer. The group's board says it wants a leader who can help the organization grow as demand rises for work that makes homes more efficient and healthy.

BPA formed in 2018 through the merger of three groups: Efficiency First, Home Energy Magazine, and the Home Performance Coalition. It works to strengthen the home performance industry broadly, rather than serving homeowners directly. The new CEO will oversee the group's finances, programs, and strategic plan, and will lead fundraising and outreach across the industry.

This is a leadership and organizational change within a trade association, not a program or policy shift that affects rebates, incentives, or upgrade options for your house. If you're planning an energy upgrade, this news doesn't change what's available to you or any deadlines you might be tracking. It mainly signals that a group involved in shaping industry standards and training is in a transition period as it looks for new leadership.
