The Alliance for Industrial Efficiency is a coalition of business, labor, and non-profit organizations who advocate for policies to increase US manufacturing competitiveness through industrial energy efficiency, especially the use of Combined Heat and Power (CHP) and Waste Heat Recovery (WHR).  CHP and WHR could provide 20 percent of America’s electricity while cutting emissions and enhancing American manufacturing competitiveness. 

The Alliance coordinates lobbying of Congress and the Administration by its members, develops coordinated communications strategies, and mobilizes its members and affiliates to support an expanded awareness and focus on industrial efficiency.  The Alliance is guided by a Steering Committee of its members and is staffed by David Gardiner & Associates (DGA). 

To date, the Alliance has focused on expanding the Investment Tax Credit for CHP and WHR, including CHP and WHR in a Clean Energy Standard, and incorporating CHP and WHR into the Environmental Protection Agency’s Clean Air Act rules.
