2. “Efficiency Gap” “Numerous studies conclude 20% to 40% energy savings could be implemented cost effectively, but aren’t…..” Discrepancy between economic and actual savings potential called “efficiency gap”.

3. Cost of Energy Efficiency “ACEEE Research shows that some 25% of total electricity usage can be saved cost effectively, at an average of 3 cents or less per saved per kWh. New generation sources cost 5 cents or more per kWh, making efficiency the lowest cost electricity resource”
