The HEP Energy Auditor Certification was created by the Department of Energy and the National Renewable Energy Laboratories as the ideal level of knowledge for a home energy auditor.

The BPI Building Analyst Certification can be a prerequisite used to qualify for HEP Energy Auditor. Unlike BPI Building Analyst, HEP Energy Auditor requires candidates to demonstrate advanced competency through education and work experience prerequisites.
