Energy Efficiency: Cleaner, Faster, Cheaper

To produce the energy that powers America, we depend on a dangerous and expensive mixture of fossil fuels and nuclear power. But for nearly all the thousands of ways we use energy, we have the technology to use less – reducing pollution and lowering our energy bills. Energy efficiency is a source of energy like coal, gas, or nuclear – except instead of drilling for the energy using derricks and mines, we can tap into this clean energy source by using ingenuity to do more with the energy we generate. In every home, office, and factory we can use energy more efficiently by putting to work currently available products like advanced lighting and windows that better insulate from the heat and cold.
