Sponsored By: Senator Shaheen, Jeanne [D-NH]

Passed Senate

Summary

Energy Efficiency Day designates October 7, 2026 as a day to highlight federal energy efficiency policy and progress. The resolution ties that day to five decades of bipartisan laws, naming major statutes such as the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act of 1987, the Energy Policy Acts of 1992 and 2005, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, the Energy Efficiency Improvement Act of 2015, the Energy Act of 2020, and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. It cites cumulative energy savings exceeding 80,000,000,000,000,000 British thermal units and annual energy cost avoidance above $1 trillion. The text notes more than 2.3 million people work in the energy efficiency sector and identifies the Department of Energy as the principal federal agency on efficiency and renewables. It calls on the people of the United States to observe Energy Efficiency Day with programs, ceremonies, and activities.
