Policy & Legislation
SWEEP advances energy efficiency through work on
legislation, incentives and regulation. SWEEP
proactively engages in the legislative process in each
of the states in our region to pass bills that help
remove barriers and make it easier for utilities,
businesses and consumers to embrace energy efficiency.
SWEEP also works closely with the public utility
commissions in each state, providing technical
assistance and intervening in some utility cases to
advocate for goals, incentives and rate structures that
support greater energy efficiency.
See our
Legislative Activity section for annual reports and
detailed information on our current and past activities
in each state.
See
Policy Recommendations for more information on the
wide range of state and local policies that will
increase energy efficiency, and the general policy
approaches that SWEEP supports.
See
ARRA Stimulus Tracking to learn how federal economic
stimulus funds for energy efficiency are being spent in
your state. |
