The Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA), as amended, grants the Department of Energy (DOE) broad authority to regulate the maximum energy intensiveness of everyday household appliances such as microwaves and dishwashers. As the pace of these energy efficiency regulations has increased, the effects of these standards—and the analyses on which they are based—reveal a need to revisit this statutory authority to reduce burdens for consumers.
