ARLINGTON, Va. —In a letter sent to the Chairwoman and Ranking Member of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) urged support for President Donald Trump's nominee, William Cooper, to serve as general counsel to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
Noting that AHRI works closely with DOE on energy efficiency standards and performance certification, AHRI Senior Vice President of Policy and Government Relations Joe Trauger stated that AHRI "...would welcome Mr. Cooper's leadership at the department and looks forward to working with him closely...."
