Honey's Work Saves Energy

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has hired Honeywell to assist with energy savings goals.

The U.S. government is the single greatest consumer of energy in the country, while DOE is the second largest energy user of all civilian federal agencies, the DOE's Transformational Energy Action Management (TEAM) Initiative could save $90 million in taxpayer money every year by cutting energy use at its facilities by 30 percent.

Electrical, lighting, heating, cooling and water systems are slated to be audited for waste reduction. Investments for energy saving upgrades are believed to be funded from energy efficiency savings.

Could be time we all did a bit of auditing and created changes or brought in an expert to help us.
