Energy Efficiency for Efficient U.S. Economic Recovery
September 30, 2009
As stated in this source article, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Steven Chu announced last week that more than $106 million in stimulus funding is being awarded to nine states for energy efficiency and conservation activities. The advantage of energy efficiency measures is that they are stimulative in rebuilding the U.S economy, as desired, since many pre-existing technologies and products may be administered to generate cost-savings, while leading to immediate job creation in the process.
