Recent residential energy conservation programs under development and evaluation by the Federal government include the following: FEA's appliance efficiency targets (two sets); the Department of Housing and Urban Development program to develop thermal standards for new construction (two sets); a nationwide program to retrofit single-family units (state conservation plans, HUD, and FEA financial assistance and demonstration programs); and a stronger conservation program. The programs discussed were all authorized by the 94th Congress; none are yet fully implemented. Each program is evaluated for its effects on residential energy use (by fuel type and in aggregate) and on household economics between 1977 and 2000.
