Washington State Weatherization Pilot Project: Meeting Energy Targets

Learn how the Washington State Department of Commerce initiated a pilot project to boost weatherization efforts in targeted housing units. With ARRA funding, employee reassignments, vendor partnerships and property audits, the project aims to exceed production goals. Examples of units in Everett, Tacoma, Lakewood, and Kalama showcase the initiative's success. Discover the state's progress, objectives, and plans for transitioning to a more efficient, CAP-driven response mechanism.

  1. Washington State Department of Commerce Washington State Weatherization Pilot Project NASCSP Mid-Winter Conference February 2010

  2. ARRA Funding Unit Production • Challenge: Meet production targets after legitimate delays to meet DOE plan and Governor expectations • Solution: Start a six-month pilot project to directly target weatherization work for units within the state’s Housing Trust Fund portfolio. • Projects are direct service to supplement the work performed by the Community Action Network to make sure goals and targets are met.

  3. ARRA Funding and Pilot Project: Recipe for Success • The Process • Employee reassignments • Vendors procured • Identify properties targeted • Check with CAPs • Perform audit with vendor • Measures: CFLs, low-flow aerators and showerheads, insulation, air sealing, venting

  7. Matsusaka: 25 units in Tacoma, Washington

  8. Manresa: 20 multi-family units in Lakewood, WA
