Summary

Federal Energy Management Improvement Act - Amends the National Energy Conservation Policy Act to revise the policies governing Federal energy management. Adds and defines new terms, including "energy conservation measures" and "performance contracting." Redescribes procedures involved in the establishment and use of life cycle cost methods. Requires the establishment by each agency of a program of incentives that uses internal resources to encourage energy conservation and efficiency by allowing the retention of a portion of the dollar savings resulting from the agency's energy conservation measures. Establishes an Interagency Energy Management Task Force to assess Federal energy savings, disseminate information on energy efficiency, including cogeneration and other technologies, and develop energy-saving options. Requires agencies to improve construction designs for Federal buildings so that the energy consumption per gross square foot in use during FY 1995 is at least ten percent less than that of FY 1985. Sets forth implementation steps to meet such goal. Requires agencies to similarly enhance the energy performance of Federal passenger automobiles by ten percent over the same ten-year period.
