This new resource quickly calculates home energy use based on a detailed description of a home, its appliances and geographic location. Plus, all energy applications (heating, cooling, lighting, etc.) are included in the calculation. Armed with the findings, co-op members are able to estimate how much energy and money they can save by implementing energy efficiency improvements.
The Home Energy Saver was the first Web-based tool to compute energy use in residential buildings, according to LBNL. The Web resource is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) as part of the national ENERGY STAR Program for improving energy efficiency in homes.
