Yet energy efficiency programs face formidable barriers to adoption that renewable resources do not. While both renewable and efficiency resources have received significant funding in recent years, government support for renewables continues to dwarf that for efficiency measures, and regulatory policies consistently discourage utilities from investing in efficiency measures even while they incentivize investment in renewables. This Article examines the parallel development of renewable resource and energy efficiency programs within utilities, compares the differing treatment of each, and offers concrete recommendations for enhancing energy efficiency adoption by modifying existing policies to more closely resemble those applied to renewable resources. The Article concludes that the historic disincentives to implementing efficiency policies can be remedied by: 1) updating ratemaking structures to ensure utilities can recover and earn on efficiency investments; 2) streamlining cost effectiveness tests that presently encourage utilities to underestimate and under-invest in efficiency programs; and 3) addressing market barriers by strengthening consumer incentives and market transformation efforts.10aBusiness Law1 aScott, Inara  uhttp://law.lclark.edu/law_reviews/environmental_law/00567nas a2200109   4500008004100000245014500041210006900186260002700255653001700282100001700299856014100316       2013                        eng d00a“Dancing Backward in High Heels": Examining and Addressing the Disparate Regulatory Treatment of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Resources0 aDancing Backward in High Heels Examining and Addressing the Disp  aPalm Springs, CAc201310aBusiness Law1 aScott, Inara  uhttps://dev.business.oregonstate.edu/biblio/dancing-backward-high-heels-examining-and-addressing-disparate-regulatory-treatment-energy-000501nas a2200133   4500008004100000245008300041210006900124260000900193300000600202490000700208653001700215100001700232856011800249       2003                        eng d00aDefining ‘Employee’: Supreme Court Resolves Question in Clackamas v.
