BPI is an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) accredited standards development organization for the energy efficiency and home performance industry.
BPI develops certifications based on upholding these standards and creating consistency throughout the workforce. BPI currently provides standards on home energy auditing, data modeling and more.
BPI welcomes the opportunity to meet the standards needs of the building performance industry, especially as they relate to supporting new technologies and installation services. If you have a suggestion, please email it to us at standards@bpi.org.
Each year in the fall, BPI issues a call for interested individuals to apply for membership on the Standards Technical Committees (STCs). After carefully reviewing the applications received and selecting a balanced representation of technical experts, BPI appoints new members. Keep an eye out for the calls for applications on www.bpi.org.
Individuals with time availability and a technical interest are invited to join one of the working groups, which are responsible for drafting standards and bulletins. Working groups collaborate via conference call and e-mail. These groups forward their work to the STC for appropriate action (some working group members are also STC members). Working group participants actively engage on regular conference calls and provide edits to draft standards or bulletins.
If you are interested in joining a working group, please contact standards@bpi.org.
When appropriate and with approval of the Manager of Standards, the group may ask an individual who is not a member to join a meeting to provide clarification or additional information to the committee on a particular agenda item. This will be indicated on the meeting agenda.
