The Alliance to Save Energy is a bipartisan, nonprofit coalition of business, government, environmental, and consumer groups based in Washington, D.C. The Alliance states that it advocates for "energy-efficiency policies that minimize costs to society and individual consumers, and that lessen greenhouse gas emissions and their impact on the global climate." The Alliance's chief activities include public relations, research, and lobbying to change U.S. energy policy.
The Alliance was established on March 18, 1977, with the support of then U.S. President Jimmy Carter. It was the initiative of Senators Charles Percy (R-Ill.) and Hubert Humphrey (D-Minn.).
