SRES 404 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution designating October 4, 2023, as "Energy Efficiency Day" in celebration of the economic and environmental benefits that have been driven by private sector innovation and Federal energy efficiency policies.

SRES 404 is a ceremonial resolution designating October 4, 2023, as "Energy Efficiency Day" to recognize the economic and environmental benefits of existing energy efficiency policies and private sector innovation. It does not create new laws, funding, or requirements - it simply urges the public to observe the day with activities celebrating achievements like $800 billion in annual energy cost savings and a 50% reduction in energy use in federal facilities since the 1970s. The resolution references bipartisan energy efficiency policies enacted since the 1970s (e.g., the Energy Policy Act of 1992 and the Energy Act of 2020) but does not alter them. As a non-binding observance, it directly affects no individuals or entities and serves only to acknowledge past progress.
