It revealed <\/em>that low-income households pay up to three times more on home energy costs than more affluent households, representing nearly 20% of their income. \u201cAddressing this access disparity is a priority for EPA, and one we know we can address by working together with our partners,\u201d the EPA says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See how you and your organization can participate in ENERGY STAR Day and enable ENERGY STAR to amplify your energy-efficiency success stories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>October is Energy Awareness Month, which gives businesses and consumers lots of opportunities to learn about, adopt and promote energy-efficiency practices that reduce consumption and save money.
