While I was checking the stock market for the final time today (it's up) I ran across this video of the latest and greatest in residential energy efficiency technology. Since this remodeling job was partially underwritten by the manufacturers, it’s a pretty good bet that we will be seeing many of these products in stores soon.
And I thought this house was cutting edge!
Universities compete each year for the best energy efficient home design - fascinating. The homes are available for tour, some top winners are close by. Hoping the HCPSS figures this out and takes the kids there.
ReplyDeleteThe reporter was pretty up front about the fact that the homeowner is unlikely to ever recoup the retail price of the green renovations through lower energy costs. Green tech has a long way to go.
