β€œIn the U.S., it costs $200 billion a year to power the buildings where we work, shop, and go to school, and another $200 billion for industrial energy use. On average 20-30% of this energy is wasted. By reducing the waste of energy in buildings we can save energy and money, create good jobs, and avoid significant emissions of CO2.”
