Government Leadership by Example– Federal “High-Performance Green Buildings” ($4.5 billion)
President Obama’s FY 2010 Budget: A+ in EE
108% Increase Over FY 2009 Request, including:
$10 million increase for the industrial sector $98 million increase in the Department of Energy’s
(DOE) Building Technologies Program–includes $10 million for building energy codes. $10 million for the Federal Energy Management
Program$25 million increase for the State Energy Programincreases for DOE’s ENERGY STAR program,
commercial buildings, residential buildings, R&D, and equipment standards.
Energy and Climate LegislationAmerican Clean Energy Leadership Act (ACELA) Passed Senate ENR Comm. 17 June Energy bill similar to ACES, but with no
cap-and-trade provisions
Savings by 2030:- 4.3 quads- $36B for consumers ($240/household)
American Clean Energy and Security Act 2009 (ACES) Passed House 26 June Standards + incentives to promote
clean energy tech Firm cap on GHG emissions Savings by 2030:
- 8.8 quads- $62B for consumers
($486/household)
The role of energy efficiency in climate legislation
Efficiency is the quickest, cheapest way to reduce energy consumption and lower greenhouse gas emissions
In ACES, energy efficiency provisions alone would: Save American households about $154 per year in 2025.
(EPA)
Reduce carbon allowance price by 1.5 percent between 2015-2050. (EPA)
On the whole, ACES would create on average 120,000 new energy efficiency jobs nationwide each year between 2012-2020.(Center for American Progress)
ACES: EE Programs Complementary EE policies
Building codes and labeling programs Appliance standards Electric efficiency resource standard
Complementary EE Programs- EE in WM is 3-6% of allowance value
$81 to $167b over 2012-2050
- 12.5% of allowance value could get Allowance prices 10% lower Electric, nat gas and petrol prices 1-3% lower Electric and natural gas demand 3-7% lower
