DOE, EPA & Utilities Launch National Action Plan For Energy Efficiency

Today fifty utilities along with the Dept. of Energy and EPA released a preliminary Action Plan for Energy Efficiency.
The goal of the National Action Plan for Energy Efficiency is to create a sustainable, aggressive national commitment to energy efficiency through gas and electric utilities, utility regulators, and partner organizations.

OK, it's a start. But tell us why utilities aren't already the largest retailers of energy saving light bulbs or fans? They already have our shipping addresses and bill us monthly. We can simply check a box on our bill and receive products a week later. If they prefer not to stock & ship the items themselves, they can outsource and take a sales commission from a mail order fulfillment house. The business is likely to be more profitable than power generation and is unregulated.
