How much do the energy efficiency home improvements cost?
The cost depends on the work being done, but can range from a thousand dollars to ten thousand dollars or more. A typical Home Performance with ENERGY STAR project is in the $5,000 to $8,000 range. This is a substantial financial investment, but can reduce heating costs by as much as 30%. If your household is spending $3,000 on energy each year, energy efficiency improvements may reduce that cost by $1,000 a year. These projects also generate average returns on investment of 10 to 30%.
