We submitted comment letters to the Department of Energy (DOE) on its proposed rules to strengthen energy conservation standards for general service lamps and distribution transformers.

We also suggest that DOE apply additional analysis to each rule using draft updated climate-damage valuations that the Environmental Protection Agency released in November 2022.
