Certification Requirements

Individuals conducting energy audits for projects financed by Michigan SAVES will be required to have appropriate third-party certification or licenses based on the type of audit performed. For the residential program, the certifications must be obtained from either the Building Performance Institute (BPI) or the Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET®).

The nonresidential program will require the individual to be a professional engineer or licensed architect, or to have approved experience working with all aspects of building energy systems.
