National Energy Improvement Fund (NEIF) Joins 2026 U.S. Heat Pump Summit as Sponsor and Presenter

ALLENTOWN, PA and DENVER, CO, September 30, 2026 — The National Energy Improvement Fund (NEIF) sponsored and participated in the 2026 U.S. Heat Pump Summit, held September 15-16 at the DCU Center in Worcester, Massachusetts. The event brought together contractors, manufacturers, and other energy leaders and professionals for two days of education, networking, and discussion around the continued growth of the heat pump market.

Representing NEIF at this year’s Summit were Peter Krajsa, Co-Chair and Managing Member, and Jared Mulliner, Senior Business Development Director for the Northeast. As an event sponsor, NEIF had an opportunity to connect with other industry experts while also welcoming attendees at its exhibit booth.

Additionally, NEIF was featured on the Summit’s Demo Stage, where Mulliner spoke directly about the role that financing plays in heat pump adoption and shared information about NEIF’s Certified Financing programs, which provide fair and trusted payment options helping make energy efficiency and resilience upgrades more affordable for homeowners in and across the U.S.

“This was a tremendous conference, with engaged contractors and attendees and dynamic presentations. NEIF’s financing volume is up almost 60% over last year, really showcasing the demand for fair and affordable financing. Participating in the 2026 Heat Pump Summit gave us the chance to exchange ideas and hear firsthand about the opportunities and challenges shaping the heat pump and energy efficiency market, as well as build relationships with industry leaders and NEIF partners such as Building Performance Institute (BPI), i-Wallet, 257.co, Tru-Tech Tools, Energy Circle, Coral, along with valued contractors,” said Krajsa.
