Summary

Today, America's buildings consume more energy than any other sector of the US economy, including transportation and industry. Almost three-quarters of America's 81 million buildings were built before 1979. Many will eventually require either significant retrofits or replacement, with projections for 15 million new buildings to be built by 2010.
