BPA Energy Efficiency is dedicated to delivering energy-efficiency savings to achieve public power's share of the Northwest Power and Conservation Council's conservation targets. The agency supports its utility customers and regional energy efficiency stakeholders in their efforts to track and leverage savings from projects funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) to help achieve these targets. In general, BPA does not receive or distribute Recovery Act funds for energy efficiency.
