Book excerpt: Large scale energy efficiency and electrification of the US residential sector are needed to meet the Paris Agreement goal of limiting warming below two degrees Celsius. Energy efficiency retrofits can also provide significant health and economic benefits, especially for low-income residents. These non-energy benefits are often excluded from policy analysis of energy efficiency programs because they are not well quantified, especially at a local level. In this thesis I quantify a subset of these public and private health benefits and develop a cost benefit analysis at the county level across the continental US of a retrofit policy for low-income households that includes electrification and efficiency measures. The retrofit policy yields a positive average net present value in 29\% of counties when considering only the private benefits of reduced energy consumption. However, retrofits yield positive net present value in all US counties when public and private health benefits are included. I also explored the potential impacts of a retrofit policy on household energy burden (household energy expenditures divided by household income). In most counties, retrofits would more than offset the additional cost of energy from a $51 per metric ton carbon price, the current social cost of carbon estimated by the federal government. The gap between public and private retrofit benefits prevents low-income households from implementing energy efficiency measures. Programs to subsidize low-income retrofits would reduce economic deadweight loss, climate emissions, and energy costs, while improving human health and wellbeing for low-income households that currently suffer disproportionately from inefficient housing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book “Building Energy Audits-Diagnosis and Retrofitting” is a collection of twelve papers that focus on the built environment in order to systematically collect and analyze relevant data for the energy use profile of buildings and extended for the sustainability assessment of the built environment. The contributions address historic buildings, baselines for non-residential buildings from energy performance audits, and from in-situ measurements, monitoring, and analysis of data, and verification of energy saving and model calibration for various building types. The works report on how to diagnose existing problems and identify priorities, assess, and quantify the opportunities and measures that improve the overall building performance and the environmental quality and well-being of occupants in non-residential buildings and houses. Several case studies and lessons learned from the field are presented to help the readers identify, quantify, and prioritize effective energy conservation and efficiency measures. Finally, a new urban sustainability audit and rating method of the built environment addresses the complexities of the various issues involved, providing practical tools that can be adapted to match local priorities in order to diagnose and evaluate the current state and future scenarios towards meeting specific sustainable development goals and local priorities.

Download or read book Measured Energy Savings and Economics of Retrofitting Existing Single family Homes written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The energy bill for US single-family households was over $77 billion in 1987 (excluding auto fuel purchases), accounting for approximately 20% of national energy expenditures. Large sums are spent on residential retrofits by individual homeowners, government agencies, and utilities. As of late 1987, over 21 million households indicated that they had added at least one energy-saving measure in the previous two years, while a recent Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) study estimated that nearly 15 million residential customers have participated in some kind of demand-side management (DSM) program. Given the level of continuing investments in residential energy efficiency, accurate estimates of savings from various conservation measures are increasingly necessary, especially as new technologies become more sophisticated and incremental efficiency gains more difficult to achieve. This report provides a comparative analysis of measured data on the performance and cost-effectiveness of energy-saving measures in existing single-family homes, based on information in the Buildings Energy-Use Compilation and Analysis (BECA) data base. The initial BECA report on measured data for single-family retrofits was completed seven years ago. In updating the single-family database, we have added 135 data points, representing over 33,000 houses, to the original database of 145 retrofit projects. The report is organized in two volumes. Volume 1 provides a summary of energy savings and costs of individual retrofit measures and strategies and results from federal/state low-income and utility weatherization programs. we also discuss measurement issues, predicted versus actual savings, trends in single-family retrofit programs, and implications for the next generation'' of cost-effective single-family retrofits. Volume 2 contains a written summary of each retrofit project and complete data tables. 87 refs., 20 figs., 16 tabs.
