· Energy (Stamford, Conn.); (United States)
An analysis of one of the oldest residential conservation programs in the United States (i.e., the Davis, California Energy Conservation Building Code) reveals a 15% reduction in electricity consumption in the first 41 months of implementation. This reduction, which has been corrected for weather effects, energy-price changes, and non-local policies, is attributed to both the structural features of the code and to the energy conserving behavior of the residents of the city.
