• Federal Policy: We focus on influencing and promoting effective bipartisan legislation, regulatory actions, and administrative policy.
• Energy 2030: We bring together national and local leaders to advance implementation of a roadmap for achieving the shared goal of doubling U.S. energy productivity.
• Global Alliance for Energy Productivity: We work with international decision makers, governments and companies to achieve the goal of doubling global energy productivity, providing a global, energy productivity-focused framework for the development of policies and programs that promote greater economic prosperity and a more secure future across all regions.
• Clean Power Plan: We have developed a hub of tools and resources for policymakers and industry participants to explain the role of energy efficiency as the fastest, easiest and most cost-effective mechanism available for compliance with the Clean Power Plan.
• Buildings: With buildings comprising approximately 40 percent of U.S. energy waste, we promote the adoption, implementation, and advancement of building energy codes in the U.S. and abroad, aiming to make the most energy-exhaustive sector more efficient.
• CarbonCount™: We have developed a scoring tool that evaluates bond investments in U.S.-based energy efficiency and renewable energy projects and now offer third-party green bond certifications in accordance with the carbon count methodology.
• PowerSave Schools: We work to empower students to be leaders with measurable, best practices on energy efficiency to address the real-world challenge of increasing utility bills, and move their schools and communities toward a greener future. PowerSave Schools reduce consumption an average of 5-15% in one year through no-cost operations and behavior changes.
