Free Webinar: All About the Energy Rating Index (ERI), January 10, 12-1pm EST
Event Description
What is your goal?
Whether you are trying to make your project more energy efficient, meet or beat building code, achieve Energy Star or a green building certification, or get Inflation Reduction Act funds, the Energy Rating Index (ERI) is the way to do it!
You may be most familiar with the RESNET HERS Index but aren't familiar with the public standard from which its calculations are derived - ANSI/RESNET/ICC 301, so GreenHome Institute will discuss the difference.
Finally, GreenHome Institute will go over how to access ERI resources such as trained verifiers and modeling tools so you can make more informed decisions.
