Path Energy Desk Book for HUD Programs

摘要

The goal of this guide is to familiarize HUD staff with requirements andopportunities for improving energy efficiency and installing renewable energy measures in housing assisted by HUD programs. It is also useful to provide to those who work with the recipients of HUD programs. The guide has been updated as a part of the Partnership for Advancing Technology in Housing's (PATH's) effort to cut the environmental impact and energy use of new housing by 50 percent or more and reduce energy use in at least 15 million existing homes by 30 percent or more. PATH wants to take every opportunity to encourage interagency cooperation to reduce energy and environmental costs in today's and tomorrow's housing.
