New "Fuel Mileage" Label for homes
Energy Trust of Oregon has developed a new residential energy labeling system that allows buyers to compare the efficiency of homes in the same way that consumers compare the fuel efficiency of automobiles. Based on considerations such as a home’s size, level of insulation, HVACHeating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning. systems, lighting, and major appliances, the Energy Performance Score is calculated based on both energy consumption and carbon emissions, with low scores indicating the greatest efficiency.
