Office of Energy Efficiency and

ACTION: Notice of public meeting.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) is considering
establishing energy conservation
standards for commercial and industrial
compressors. To date, DOE has
considered energy conservation
standards only for compressors
intended to compress air, rather than
natural gas. As a result, DOE’s current
efforts have focused on air compressors.
However, DOE is also aware that
compressors used to compress natural
gas may also use a substantial amount
of energy. To improve its understanding
of both the technology and market of
natural gas compressors, DOE will hold
