Overview A Few Words About the Alliance EE in the U.S.: Waking the Quiet Giant The Art of the Possible – Creating a New U.S. Energy Economy on a Foundation of EE High Stakes/High Rewards:  The Retrofit Ramp-up Role!
What is the Alliance to Save Energy?  Mission:   ,[object Object],Organization: ,[object Object]
32 years of experience
$12 million annual budget

Why EE?  Why Now? Climate Change:  Energy use directly linked to   GHG emissions..the U.S. example: ,[object Object]
Accelerate fossil fuel depletion
Increase our reliance on foreign sources of energy
Economy:
Energy waste comes at high costs: “Business as usual” energy use will waste more than $1.2 trillion in the U.S. between now and 2020 in the U.S. alone – and this does not include transportation energy consumption!,[object Object]
Game Changers:  The Role of Cities The Challenge: Cities are resource-hungry, and they’re growing +50% of the global population lives in cities; 60% by 2030 (U.N. estimate) Cities emit disproportionate amount– 80% global GHGs (U.N. Habitat) Drastically reducing growth in emissions requires wide-scale changes, involving: Infrastructural changes, Behavioral changes The developing world:  75 percent of the world's billion poorest humans live in urban areas  Dilemma: who finances sustainable urban development?)    The Potential: Energy Efficiency First ,[object Object]
Developed countries (G-8 + 5) can avoid $3 trillion worth of new generation (UN Foundation)
Developing world can reduce energy demand by 25% by 2020 (McKinsey Global Inst.)
Most of these improvements need to happen at regional/municipal level
70 % of technologies required are available or on the horizon (McKinsey)
Energy savings can pave way for investments in wide-scale renewable, clean energy, climate improvements,[object Object]

  3. A note about urban infrastructure: the problem doesn't just lie in the energy that gets consumed within city limits. More often than not the bigger environmental issue lies in how resources are transported to the city in the first place (widens the problem beyond city borders)
  4. Passage of EPACT2005 marked beginning of “era of EE”Energy Independence & Security Act (EISA), P. L. 110-140; most sweeping energy bill enacted in over 30 years
  5. The historic numbers (through 2007) come from EIA’s Electric Power Annual report; projected figures come from LBNL’s October 2009 report, “The Shifting Landscape of Ratepayer-funded Energy Efficiency in the U.S.”
