Residential contractors will soon have the opportunity to participate in Energy Trust of Oregon’s Contractor Development Pathway (CDP), a no-cost opportunity designed to help contractors grow their knowledge of energy efficiency and increase participation in Energy Trust’s Existing Buildings and Home Retrofit programs.

  • Educational workshops

  • Peer mentorship
  • Business consulting

Energy Trust is seeking Oregon contractors to enroll in the 2025 cohort. Women-owned, Black-owned, Indigenous-owned, -owned, veteran-owned businesses and contractors in rural Oregon are encouraged to apply.
