A Clear Picture of Your Home’s Energy Performance

The Home Energy Score is a nationally recognized rating developed by the U.S. Department of Energy.

It measures how efficiently your home uses energy — from its structure to its heating, cooling, and hot-water systems — and rates it on a 1-10 scale:

1 — Home uses more energy than most homes and could benefit from efficiency upgrades

10 — Home uses less energy than 90% of homes

The average Home Energy Score is a 5.

Your Home Energy Score provides:

  • Clear facts about how your home uses energy

  • A pathway to improve comfort and efficiency

  • Recommendations that can help lower energy bills and reduce emissions

The Home Energy Score is designed to support informed, cost-effective decisions.
