“demand for natural gas is expected to rise by as much as 50 percent over the next 25 years. Currently the Nation's inventory of natural gas lags behind past inventories of the popular fuel, and rising demand illustrates the need for consumers to become mindful of energy use. During a press conference yesterday, Secretary Abraham unveiled the Department's new energy saver Web site, www.energysavers.gov. From tips on insulating a home, to heating and cooling, to buying new windows, the Web site serves as a consumer resource to start cutting home energy prices. In addition, a number of energy associations such as the Alliance to Save Energy, the American Public Power Association, the American Gas Association and the Edison Electric Institute have teamed up with the Department to further educate their members and consumers in methods to help save electricity and in turn positively affect our Nation's natural gas supply situation. I encourage my constituents, as well as Members, to review this material on this Web site as it provides a number of useful tips for consumers to begin to reduce their energy use and in turn lower their annual costs as we work to address the supply needs for this country.”
