President Signs Energy Efficiency Bill That Includes Ayotte-Bennet Better Buildings Act

President Obama today signed into law a bipartisan energy efficiency bill – the Energy Efficiency Improvement Act of 2015 – that includes legislation previously introduced by U.S. Senators Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) and Michael Bennet (D-CO) to boost the use of energy efficient technology by tenants in commercial buildings. The bill, authored by Senators Rob Portman (R-OH) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), includes the Bennet-Ayotte Better Buildings Act, which encourages tenants of commercial buildings to voluntarily implement cost-effective measures that will help reduce energy consumption and ultimately utility costs for businesses
