What Does the National Action Plan for Energy Efficiency Cover?
The Action Plan focuses on gas and electric companies, known as “utilities,” as well as state efforts to provide energy efficiency programs. States and natural gas and electricity utilities, along with the government agencies that regulate them, can play an important role in offering energy efficiency options to customers and communities. In order for these programs to be successful, utilities, regulators, and other organizations interested in energy efficiency must work together. The Action Plan offers recommendations for states’ and utilities’ decision-makers to follow. Many are already making commitments to follow these recommendations and increase their energy efficiency efforts so customers can save money on their energy bills.
