Why Are Existing Buildings Important?
76 million residential and 5 million
commercial buildings in the U.S.
• These Buildings Consume:
– 40% of all energy used in U.S.
– 76% of all electricity
• These Buildings Generate:
– 36% of total CO2 emissions

That’s about $200 billion in annual utility costs!

Quick Facts
• Buildings use $200 billion worth of electricity and
natural
t l gas eachh year.
• If the energy efficiency of U.S. buildings improved by 10
percent, Americans would save about $20 billion and
reduce greenhouse gases equal to the emissions from
about 30 million vehicles
• The energy
gy used byy commercial and industrial buildings
g
in the U.S. is responsible for nearly 50 percent of our
national emissions of greenhouse gases
