Chris Ruch, NEMI’s director of training, was recently appointed to the board of the California Energy Alliance (CEA), which works to bring beneficial, equitable change to energy standards, policies and programs powered by carbon-free, reliable energy sources.

One of the Alliance’s projects is the 2022 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Initiative, which aims to develop proposals for building energy code improvements to the California Energy Commission that will deliver energy savings, reduce costs and move the state closer to its energy and environmental goals.

“The Alliance’s work on advocacy, outreach and research has the opportunity to expand throughout the United States and Canada to achieve our common energy efficiency and indoor air quality (IAQ) goals,” Ruch said.
