Clean energy is ready to power the future

Here's how we're working toward a clean, modern energy system that will better protect our health, while boosting the economy.

• 

  Reducing energy waste and saving customers money

  Why: Our outdated and inefficient energy system is incapable of taking us to into the future.

  How: We're focusing on modernizing our power grid and other ways to cut energy waste – rewriting old rules to reward conservation and clean energy and empower customers to make smart energy choices.

• 

  Protecting our health

  Why: Power sector emissions cause numerous health problems – such as asthma and heart attacks – and premature deaths.

  How: We're working to advance energy innovation in America, which – along with market forces – is driving power companies to retire dirty coal plants and helping to address pollution that puts our health at risk.

• 

  Spurring investments and new business practices

  Why: Investments in clean energy and business efforts to cut emissions are speeding up the transition to a clean energy future.

  How: We're spurring private investment in energy efficiency and renewables. Through business partnerships, we help forge solutions that cut pollution, boost profit and support job growth.
