Consumer Savings
Our current energy economy is characterized by price spikes, blackouts, and imported, dirty energy. Moving to an energy future based on cleaner, renewable energy sources and major investments in energy efficiency will bring consumer prices down and help our energy-intensive industries to remain competitive. We need to invest now to ease the transition to the new energy future, and to make sure clean-energy technologies can operate on an even playing field with long-subsidized fossil fuels.
