Better Buildings aims to make commercial, public, industrial, and residential buildings 20 percent more energy efficient over the next decade. This means saving billions of dollars on energy bills, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and creating thousands of jobs.

The Energy Department is currently pursuing strategies within 4 interrelated key areas to catalyze change and investment in energy efficiency.
