Deployment of heat pumps is a key part of the greenhouse gas reduction goals set out in the Inflation Reduction Act. CLASP and RAP have analyzed impacts of the IRA on the heat pump market in the United States and recommended complementary policies states can use to increase adoption of heat pumps, including workforce training, improved public access and participation and rate design.

Join us for the latest in a series of webinars looking at heat pump adoption in regions across the country. This interactive conversation will feature practitioners from the Mountain West states, and we’ll hear how they are using federal dollars and state and local policies to deliver heating and cooling improvements in homes throughout the region.

Panelists:

• Maren Mahoney, Director, Arizona Office of Resiliency
• Neil Kolwey, Industrial Program Director and Building Electrification Specialist, Southwest Energy Efficiency Project (SWEEP)
• Devin Filicicchia, Electrification Specialist, Community Development Division, City of Missoula, Mont.

Moderators: Vivian Cox, CLASP, and Raphael Breit, RAP

After a roundtable discussion, there will be ample time for audience questions.
