Limiting and Delaying New Energy Efficiency Standards for Power Transformers.
This bill aims to ease supply chain pressure on critical distribution transformers used to power homes and businesses. It prevents the implementation of the most stringent energy efficiency standards for these devices and delays the effective date of other new standards by 10 years. This measure supports grid stability and reliability by allowing utilities easier access to necessary equipment, though it slows down overall energy efficiency improvements.
Key points
Blocks the implementation of the highest proposed energy efficiency standards for distribution transformers (devices crucial for the electrical grid).
Introduces a 10-year delay for the effective date of any new, less stringent efficiency standards to stabilize the manufacturing supply chain.
