Bill > SRes448

This resolution designates October 1, 2025, as "Energy Efficiency Day" to recognize the significant economic and environmental achievements in energy efficiency across the United States. The resolution highlights several key points, including the nation's substantial energy savings of over 80 quadrillion British thermal units and cost avoidance of more than $1 trillion annually, as well as the bipartisan support for energy efficiency policies spanning over 50 years. It notes the involvement of a diverse coalition of businesses, organizations, and government entities, and emphasizes that since 1980, the United States has doubled its energy productivity, creating more economic output per unit of energy consumed. The resolution also acknowledges that over 2.3 million individuals are employed in the energy efficiency sector and that the Department of Energy leads federal efforts in renewable energy and efficiency. By calling on Americans to observe Energy Efficiency Day with appropriate programs and activities, the resolution seeks to raise awareness about the ongoing importance of energy conservation and technological innovation in reducing energy waste and promoting economic competitiveness.
