DOE Catalyzes Clean Energy Innovation in All 50 States

A proposal to cut the budget for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has once again been made. Investments by the DOE have fueled advancements within the technological world including energy efficiency and renewable energy. Funds have led to less expensive and cleaner energy through various projects around the entire country. Many studies show that every dollar invested into research and development for clean energy will have a beneficial return. America’s energy innovation is necessary to continue leading the way towards cost efficient clean energy methods. Many groups are pushing towards a budget increase to maintain U.S. clean energy leadership. Congress will ultimately decide the outcome which leaves us to wonder if they’ll follow suit from the past 2 years.

Your Meter will KNOW what you just plugged in
A home energy management company just bought a company that states it can different what you just plugged into your home based on its energy consumption.
Imagine, you buy a new EV (electric vehicle) and you get a communication asking if you want it only to charge during lower cost off-peak periods? Or your HVAC system starts running more frequently it might send you a suggestion to get an inspection or repair. It could also make sure your pumps and blowers don’t operate simultaneously thereby lowering your energy demand. The smart home is coming and this level of analysis of usage could surely make it actually useful.

Illinois 100% clean energy bill
Illinois legislators have proposed 100% renewable energy by 2050. Currently, the goal is 25% by 2025. The scope is ambitious. The savings would be enormous. Today, Illinois generates some 6% of its electricity from renewable energy. The majority is generated from coal, nuclear and natural gas. Illinois is leading the Midwest in low energy costs and employment from renewable energy. This bill will continue and strengthen that lead.
