Here you can find out what is possible when trying to reduce the energy usage in a home or a building.

What is amazing is that the cost of building will NOT rise since the elimination or substantial reduction in size for heating/cooling system can/will offset the cost of making the space maximum energy efficient. Lovins gives costs in the lecture which will surprise the average home owner as to their magnitude !!!
I would think that max effort should be directed toward work to create a program to help home owners to do this to existing home units.
Can not think of a better way to spend money of the sub-prime loan variety than for this type of activity.
