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.
