US DOE Launches New Web Site for Consumers
US DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency
and Renewable Energy (EERE)
launched a new consumer-oriented Web site in early October, called "Energy
Savers: A consumer guide to energy efficiency and renewable energy." The
new site combines the popular "Energy Savers" booklet
with new content on ways to save energy at home, as well as ways
to use renewable energy to provide power, hot water, and heating
and cooling for your home. It even includes information on how
to buy energy-smart vehicles, including alternative-fuel vehicles
and hybrid electric vehicles. The site features the "look
and feel" of the redesigned
EERE Web site, and can be accessed by selecting "Consumers" on
the EERE home page at: http://www.eere.energy.gov/ or by going
directly to http://www.eere.energy.gov/consumerinfo/
People looking to save energy at home can also turn to the American
Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE), which just launched
the eighth edition of its popular "Consumer Guide to Home
Energy Savings." Although the full booklet is available for
a fee, a quick checklist and a list of the most energy-efficient
home appliances are both available for free on the ACEEE Consumer
Guide Web site at: http://aceee.org/consumerguide/
