Consensus Standards Developed by Advocates and Industry Will Save Consumers Billions

A diverse coalition of consumer, manufacturing, and environmental groups, including Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships (NEEP), praised new energy efficiency standards released last week by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) establishing the first-ever regional standards for oil and gas furnaces and air conditioners, as well as strengthening national standards for heat pumps. The new rules are based on a joint recommendation filed with DOE by the groups in 2009.

As Summer Rolls On, Region Has New Tools to Value Peak-Saving 
Energy Efficiency, Cut Costs and Emissions 

Lexington, MA - The cheapest, cleanest power is the kind we never have to make. And on hot summer days when peak demand causes spot prices to soar, energy efficiency is quietly saving consumers millions in electricity costs. But understanding how more efficient products like air conditioning and lighting can help control overall and peak demand makes energy forecasting tricky.

New study provides guidance to states exploring options to link utility efficiency programs with energy codes savings

As states increasingly look to utilities to play an active role in supporting building energy codes, a new report from a coalition of energy efficiency advocates, has been issued to provide guidance for how state regulatory commissions and energy offices can best develop and evaluate such efforts.
