| Abstract | The authors examine three residential energy conservation programmes under study and development by the US government. These programmes include setting appliance efficiency targets, developing new thermal standards for housing, retrofitting existing houses to improve thermal performance and a stronger energy conservation programme. The programmes are compared using a model developed for the FEA and ERDA which projects consumption up to the year 2000. The major conclusion is that the programmes can save both energy for the USA and money for individual households. |
