Comment | There are a number of life-cycle-cost effective energy efficiency measures that could be implemented, including review of appliance standards nationwide, but including such things as gas-fired fireplaces - eliminate decorative F.P.s, which are 50% afue, e.g. 50k Btuh input @ 25k output, vs. their certified heating appliance versions @ 50k & 35k Btuh output. There's no reason, economically, let alone Climate change-wise, to delay implementing reductions in emissions by requiring upgrades in efficiency, whether it's a coal plant moving to fluidized burning (40% vs. 33%) or by improving home appliances... Increase the pace of improvements in performance of our economy, by keeping our energy $'s here in efficiency improvements vs. exporting them for buying energy supplies... Demand-side improvements vs. supply acquisition... |
