Leveraging Efficiency Awareness for Pumping Systems Act
This bill requires the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to create and post online information about energy-efficient pumping systems, detailing cost savings, energy reductions, water conservation, and carbon benefits for agricultural use. It also mandates a user-friendly online tool for farmers to input data about their current systems and estimate potential savings from upgrades. Additionally, the bill directs the USDA to establish training for energy auditors on pumping system efficiency and amend the Conservation Stewardship Program to include energy-efficient pumping systems as a qualifying activity. These provisions directly support farmers, ranchers, and aquaculture operations in making informed decisions about irrigation and water management infrastructure improvements.
