What is the ROI on energy efficiency improvements?

Energy efficiency improvements typically offer strong returns. Air sealing and attic insulation can return 100 to 200 percent of their cost through energy savings within a few years. LED bulbs return 500 percent or more over their life. High-efficiency HVAC systems return 30 to 50 percent annually through reduced bills. Energy Star appliances add value to your home and reduce utility costs for future buyers.

Why It Matters

Energy efficiency improvements are one of the few home investments that pay you back every month through lower utility bills while increasing your home's value.
