The ACEEE State Energy Efficiency Scorecard Progress Report summarizes how states advanced their energy efficiency policies and programs in 2021. Given the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on energy efficiency programs in 2020, ACEEE decided to forgo a formal Scorecard ranking in favor of an unranked and unscored end-of-year progress report that still recognizes the latest developments in energy-saving state policies. We use data vetted by state energy officials to summarize progress in utility programs, transportation, building energy codes, and appliance standards. The report shows that energy efficiency is a key resource in many states, with utilities spending approximately $7.6 billion nationally in 2020 for efficiency programs nationwide and saving 26.6 million MWh of electricity
Below are interactive data visualizations of key metrics from the Scorecard. We recommend viewing the dashboard in full screen.

Expanded utility-funded energy efficiency programs can significantly slow rising electricity demand and reduce electricity bills; this report explains how.
Explore practical strategies, best practices and case studies for planning and implementing clean transportation projects, including electric vehicles, e-bike programs and charging infrastructure, with a focus on improving mobility, reducing costs and expanding transportation access in underserved communities.
The commonwealth spends almost $11 billion a year buying energy from out of state. Mass Save lowers bills and keeps money at home.
Utility energy efficiency programs have increased investment in low-income households, but significant gaps remain. This report examines spending and savings trends across 48 major U.S. utilities, identifies barriers to expanding low-income programs and highlights policies and program strategies that can improve energy affordability and equitable access to efficiency upgrades.
ACEEE’s independent research and advocacy depend on the support of foundations, businesses, and individuals committed to cutting energy bills, waste, and climate pollution.
