In the (Efficient) Spotlight

The Bonneville Power Administration and the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance, in partnership with the Northwest Power and Conservation Council and utilities throughout the Northwest, are hosting the fourth annual Efficiency Exchange conference this week in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. See the joint agency press release.

The regionwide event focuses on promoting technical innovation and new ideas in utility energy efficiency programs. This year’s conference kicks off with a general session on energy efficiency in the Seventh Power Plan, which the Council adopted in February. The plan concludes that energy efficiency is the key to meeting our region’s future demand for electricity.
