October is Energy Awareness Month. The U.S. Department of Energy this year is recognizing the importance of energy efficiency and conservation and working with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to promote the Change a Light, Change the World campaign. NEMA and its members are supporting this program and a number of other initiatives that will help the nation achieve its ambitious energy efficiency goals.� Energy Awareness Month has implications far beyond lighting. NEMA members produce a broad spectrum of energy saving devices and works in partnership with various agencies to promote their use to the public. Their members are on the cutting edge of energy efficiency technology and actively promote, often through NEMA, the use of that technology as they have for decades.
