The Milwaukee Journal Sentinal, in a news article picked up by Treehugger, details the national attention that some Wisconsin companies have been getting for their work in energy efficiency. The big prize up right now: The Clinton Climate Initiative is spearheading a $5billion campaign to increase efficiency in 16 large American cities.

Featured is a company called Orion Energy Systems that uses bulb and computer technology to reduce the load of large factory and gym lighting by 50%.  The gains are so impressive that they have startled energy companies, who have placed calls to factories after the conversion, wondering what happened.
