MONTPELIER, Vt. -
Vermont has been a leader in electrical efficiency for more than a decade. Now a new report says it should turn its attention in a big way to improving the efficiency of the way it heats homes and other buildings.
Lawmakers called in 2008 for the state to weatherize a quarter of its buildings - about 80,000 of them - by 2020. With the state not on track to meet that goal, the Department of Public Service last year convened a special Thermal Efficiency Task Force to recommend ways to improve progress.
Its report said a typical household could save $1,000 a year on heat through efficiency measures. It also said another benefit would be big reductions in carbon emissions, and a better ability to withstand future fuel price shocks.
