  • The implementation of a national energy efficiency resource standard (EERS) in South Carolina is projected to generate $3.1 billion in energy savings and create approximately 4,495 new jobs by 2020.
  • South Carolina has the potential to lower its electricity consumption by 10% by the year 2015, which would offset nearly 70% of the projected growth in energy demand.
  • According to ACEEE's March 2009 analysis based on a 15% electricity savings target and a 10% natural gas savings target by 2020, a national EERS would result in annual electricity savings of 11,662 GWh, peak demand savings equivalent to 12 300 MW power plants, and CO2 emission savings of 9.5 million metric tons.
