There is an ongoing working relationship due to previously negotiated programs that have come to an end, but we also seek to provide further assistance to the industry to help transform it to a low carbon economy by using direct assistance programs and supporting various innovative tax policies that encourage building retrofits such as Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE).
