Jan. 21, 2013: DOE Invests in Developing Advanced Building Technologies, Including HVAC
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced a $9 million investment in the development of leading-edge building technologies, including high-efficiency heating and cooling equipment.
“A typical American family spends nearly $2,000 per year on their home energy bills, and much of that money is wasted on air leaks and drafts in our homes’ roofs, attics, and walls. By bringing new, affordable energy efficient products to the market, we can help families save money by saving energy, while strengthening U.S. manufacturing leadership in technologies that are increasingly in demand worldwide,” said Energy Secretary Steven Chu.
