Summary

The bill requires the Secretary of Energy and the Energy Information Administration to evaluate the current primary‑energy metric and recommend better alternatives within 18 months. It also adds a requirement for the EIA to collect, estimate, and publicly release annual data on “incident energy,” the total energy entering conversion systems, alongside existing statistics. The aim is to give policymakers, markets and the public clearer information about the nation’s energy efficiency and transition.
