HOMESTAR
The House of Representatives passed HB5019 with minor amendments. For details here’s a link to the bill.
Accredited Contractors will need to be BPI accredited or by some other future standard the secretary of Energy may approve. All workers performing installation must be certified in the appropriate job skills under BPI, North American Technician Excellence or the Laborers’ International Union of North America, or state programs or other programs that may be approved in the future by the Secretary of Energy.
The House bill seems to be very similar to the Senate version, before this goes any further the Senate will need to get their bill out of committee and onto the Senate floor for a vote. Right now the Senate is occupied with other legislation and I don’t see anything coming up to indicate any action on their part.
