Advisory Committee to the New Solar Homes Partnership

The New Solar Homes Partnership (NSHP) Advisory Committee is an independent, informal stakeholder group that includes representatives from the building, utility, and solar industries. It is co-chaired by Rob Hammon of ConSol and David Hochschild of Solaria.

The Advisory Committee holds regular meetings to discuss various elements regarding the New Solar Homes Partnership.

While Commissioners of the California Energy Commission do not serve on the independent Advisory Committee, they are interested in facilitating this form of public and stakeholder participation, and may attend part of the meeting. Meeting notices as well as Advisory Committee materials are posted on the Energy Commission's website on this page.

For questions about the Advisory Committee, please contact Payam Narvand at (916) 654-4017 or PNarvand@energy.state.ca.us.
