Plans to reduce carbon pollution from electric generating plants will not only provide huge environmental, economic, and health benefits, it can help low- and fixed-income Americans reduce their energy costs an average of eight percent, according to a report by the Natural Resources Defense Council. The MacArthur-supported report finds that investments in efficiency by some electric customers can actually lower bills for all customers in the system, while also reducing pollution from burning fossil fuels. Energy efficiency investments also help preserve affordable housing by reducing operating expenses for landlords and lessening rental turnover while increasing property values.
