These high performance home builders were recognized as being among
the first group of 25 builders from throughout the US who have pledged
to participate in the U. S. Department of Energy's Builders Challenge
(www.buildingamerica.gov). The Honorable Samuel W. Bodman, Secretary, U.S. Department of Energy
and Alexander "Andy" Karsner, Assistant Secretary, Office of
Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy presented a voluntary
challenge to the homebuilding industry — to build 220,000 high performance homes by 2012. These
leading builders joined the Secretary on stage to "take the
challenge" to build homes that are between 70 and 0 on the
EnergySmart Home Scale (E-Scale). The E-Scale allows homebuyers to
understand — at a glance — how the energy performance of a
particular home compares with others. Through the Builders Challenge,
participating homebuilders will have an easy way to differentiate
their best energy-performing homes from other products in the
marketplace, and to make the benefits clear to buyers.
