If you want to take greater control of your energy bills, a great place to start is the Alliance to Save Energys new consumer Web site, www.ase.org/consumers. Everything you need to know about reducing your energy bills is there. Most of the content on the site is new and has been developed and organized to meet the needs of consumers, said Alliance Communications and Marketing Director Rozanne Weissman. Heres a rundown of what you can find on the new Alliance consumer site: * Tips on lowering your energy bills, including seasonal tips for summer and winter, tips for the home office and targeted tips for consumers in various states. * Advice on remodeling your home to maximize energy efficiency - including information on home energy ratings, financing possibilities, smart investments and a link to finding a good contractor. * An animated version of the Alliances popular free consumer booklet, Power$mart: Easy Tips to Save Money and the Planet, along with ordering information for single, bulk and customized printed booklets and a downloadable flyer for use at trade shows and fairs. * A variety of home energy tools from the Alliance, Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency that demonstrate how you might save the most money, plus a home energy audit that can be done together with children as a learning tool. * Help with shopping for energy-efficient products. The Alliance shopping section, organized by product category, makes getting information and shopping for energy-efficient products easier for consumers. It links to appropriate consumer information on the Web sites of government agencies and of retailers and manufacturers that have made a commitment to energy efficiency through their work with the Alliance. * A Multimedia Screening Room.
