The Department of Energy yesterday honored 32 individuals that demonstrate a commitment by agencies across the federal government to save energy, reduce federal energy costs, limit carbon pollution, implement cutting-edge clean energy technologies, strengthen national security, and create a stronger economy for the American people. These initiatives saved taxpayers more than $26 million in fiscal year 2008 by reducing energy use and energy costs in federal facilities.
This awards program is one of several held each year in conjunction with October's Energy Awareness Month to highlight the critical importance of energy efficiency and renewable resources and federal efforts to lead by example in energy management.
