Observations and recommendations on the future of the Energy Extension Service Program

Technical Report · Thu Mar 01 04:00:00 EST 1979

OSTI ID:6275950

This is the first report of the National Energy Extension Service Advisory Board to Congress and the Secretary of Energy. The report presents the Board's observations and recommendations on whether and how the EES should expand from a pilot to a nationwide program. The National EES Act (P.L. 95-39, Title V, Section 509) established the National EES Advisory Board. A pilot EES program in ten States has demonstrated that personalized technical assistance and information in energy conservation works to stimulate small energy users to save energy or switch to renewable energy sources. Therefore, the Advisory Board recommends that Congress and the DOE should implement the EES program nationwide. Their complete recommendations are summarized and discussed. (MCW)
