Back to top Alliance Associates More than 75 corporations and business trade associations work together through the Alliance to promote greater investment in cost-effective energy efficiency. Alliance Associates participate in a range of Alliance programs and activities, including international trade and investment, the Federal Energy Productivity Task Force, and policy breakfasts with decision makers and other noted speakers. Back to top Alliance Headquarters Practicing what it preaches, the Alliance established a new energy-efficient headquarters in July 1996 in the heart of the nation's capital that showcases the latest lighting and other advanced technologies. Signs on the office walls explain the energy-efficient technologies. The Alliance's headquarters is 50 percent more efficient than the typical office suite.
Tours are available.

All programs emphasize that energy efficiency is the world's most critical energy resource.
