California Energy Efficiency Obligation
…face statutory energy savings obligations. Efficiency targets for electricity and gas utilities are set based on a legal standard of "all potentially achievable cost-effective" efficiency savings. Current goals: electricity, average goal for IOUs of about 1.15% of retail sales electricity through 2024. Natural Gas: Incremental savings target of 0.56% through 2024. Targets are expected to double as a result of a new law - SB350. Eligible energy efficiency measures include lighting, advisory, HVAC, appliances, process pumps, air compressors, building retrofits, windows, and refrigeration.

Federal Buildings: Energy Efficiency Management
In June 1999, the President issued Executive Order 13123 requiring each Federal agency to improve energy efficiency by 35% percent below 1985 levels by 2010 in its buildings and by 25% (relative to 1990) in its laboratories. This will reduce annual GHG emissions by 2.4 million tonnes of carbon equivalent with savings of more than USD 750 million a year. The President further required each federal agency to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent relative to 1990 levels by 2010.
