Have you heard about the technology breakthrough in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)? The efficiency of heat pumps has increased dramatically and now work very effectively in all temperatures. For a cost effective choice that creates healthy homes, these new heat pump technologies are trending now as a growing first choice. In 2022, air source heat pump sales outpaced gas furnace sales in the U.S. for the first time. This trend continued in 2023 and beyond. 

ENERGY STAR is working with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to better support this change so we have a pool of qualified installers to meet the demand. To stay updated on funding, future resources and opportunities, please complete this form.

US-DOE has free professional development and curricular resources on their website. Institutions with updated curricula can get recognition.
