Energy Management Program
Optimal Energy Consumption
Department of Energy, 2002
The operation of the DOE Headquarters facility in Germantown, MD has been made more efficient and customer focused through the use of an annual report for Energy Management. DOE is focused on the reduction of the consumption of energy and raw materials…and reduction of the generation of waste. DOE implemented performance measures to cost effectively meet or exceed all applicable Executive Orders and Federal Regulations for energy efficiency, as well as the use of renewable energy and water conservation.
One such regulation is Executive Order 13123 that requires Federal agencies to reduce energy consumption in Federal buildings by 30 percent through 2005 and by 35 percent through 2010, based on energy usage from 1985. DOE has completed energy efficiency and conservation projects that have reduced energy consumption by 30 percent in 2001 and 39.5 percent through the first half of 2002 without sacrificing comfort, health, or safety.
