Forum Overview

Location: National Press Building, Washington, DC

As we approach a pivotal moment for energy policy, the 2024 election will determine whether the next administration and the 119th Congress will continue to advance energy efficiency or reverse some of the substantial progress made in recent years. Historic investments through the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law have set the stage for significant improvements in clean transportation, affordable housing, and appliance standards. However, with a new administration and Congress on the horizon, the future of these policies hangs in the balance.

The 2024 Energy Efficiency Policy Forum will convene experts and leaders from across government, industry, and advocacy to assess the current landscape of federal energy efficiency policies, explore ways to strengthen and expand these efforts, and discuss how to address potential challenges ahead. In the face of uncertainty, we will chart a path forward—whether that means building on existing achievements, defending against policy rollbacks, or seizing new opportunities to lower consumer energy costs, boost U.S. competitiveness, and combat the climate crisis.

The forum will feature keynote addresses by government leaders as well as sessions focusing on:

  • Equitable and Efficient Housing. Panelists will discuss their successes and challenges in implementing new building efficiency programs, how programs can be improved, and energy efficiency’s role in alleviating rising household costs.
  • Industrial Competitiveness and Adequate Power. Panelists will examine the needs of industrial firms as they seek to transform their operations to reduce energy costs and decrease their reliance on fossil fuels and carbon-intensive processes. We will examine how the federal government can facilitate or hinder this transition. 
  • Transportation Reauthorization. Every five years, Congress must reauthorize hundreds of billions of dollars in federal surface transportation programs for highways, intercity rail, and public transit. We will explore opportunities to improve the efficiency of electric vehicles and our nation’s critical freight systems, including a state perspective.
