Following their “Energy Saver” Mission, The US Department of Energy provides energy efficiency and renewable energy information to U.S. consumers, including families, homeowners, renters, and drivers as part of its ENERGY SAVER Program.
According to their own studies, The US Energy Department has concluded that
An average household dedicates about 5% of its energy budget to lighting. Switching to energy-efficient lighting is one of the fastest ways to cut your energy bills. By replacing your home’s five most frequently used light fixtures or bulbs with models that have earned the ENERGY STAR, you can save $45 each year
