Energy conservation and small businesses. Hearing before the Subcommittee on Energy, Environment, and Safety Issues Affecting Small Business of the Committee on Small Business, House of Representatives, Ninety-Seventh Congress, First Session, Salem, Massachusetts, October 19, 1981
Eight witnesses representing small businesses testified in Salem, Massachusetts on how small businesses use energy, how they can reduce their energy consumption, and what they are doing to develop and market conservation and alternative-energy technologies. The witnesses were also asked to discuss whether tax credits, loans, information programs, and other government policies are effective. Among the responses were the assurances of a need for small businesses to participate in utility ratemaking and the importance of payback on justifying energy-conservation investments. Manufacturers of fluidized-bed coal-combustion equipment, solar equipment and systems, recycled materials and recycling services, and others described their industries contributions and goals. (DCK)
