Identifying Energy Waste

Residential and commercial buildings consume over 40 percent of the overall energy usage in the United States. These buildings represent a huge opportunity not only to reduce our nation’s overall energy usage but also to energize economic development. The economic opportunity relates to 71 percent of US homes that were built before 1990. A majority of these homes were built before stricter building codes were enforced. This creates substantial opportunities for retrofitting and upgrading with new products including split system air to air heat exchangers, Low-E window panels, bio-based insulation and other recent technologies yet to become widely known - let alone sourced, cost justified and installed.

Localize Data Points

Using a custom MTC Maps App, when a user logs in it will identify their location with a marker. Onclick opens Energy Star Yardstick app. By completing the Yardstick tool a PDF report is automatically created. Data from that PDF can be pulled which can then be stored as content specific to that geo location. This creates a data base providing the following:

  1. Identify homes with high energy bills.
  2. Plot mapmarker - Open info window.
  3. Enable additional user input.
  4. Identify local energy audit certifiers.
  5. Assist Forms Submission for Incentives.
  6. Provide Data Access to Sponsors.
