Overview

Mission

The mission of the Energy Efficiency Education Project is to educate consumers, businesses, and government agencies (the general public) about energy efficiency and its value to public health, the economy, and the environment. Societal benefits include reducing air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to Climate Change, and water conservation.

What it reported doing in 2025

EEEP has worked toward an association with the EEBC, the Energy Efficiency Business Coalition, a 501(c)(6), to identify funding sources to further it's mission statement. In addition, EEBC included education on our behalf to the general public about energy efficiency.
