Multifamily Energy
Savings Project • Three-year project to improve the energy
efficiency of multifamily housing nationwide
• GOAL: Expand the number of utilities offering
multifamily energy efficiency programs and
increase spending and savings for these
programs by at least 25% by the end of
2015
• Focus on building partnerships between the
housing community, utilities, and state and
local governments
