2017-02-22: Letter to Industry

Dear CGC Members, Quality Program Participants, and friends, I'm writing to follow up on the letter we sent you before the break, announcing a new team at CGC. First, hello. Many of us know each other from years past and I look forward to reconnecting. The strength of this industry is in its members both large and small, both those at strategic levels who deal with energy system issues, and those at the grass roots who put pipe in the ground and heat pumps in homes. Everyone has an important role to play. Second, we've been quiet for the last weeks at CGC for legal and for administrative reasons. CGC was left without comprehensive, detailed, or clearly organised information on hand. As you can imagine, it was a difficult task for new employees and it took a lot of dedication from our new folks to get CGC back, up and functioning. We are nearing the final week or so of a lengthy transition process.
