The document discusses the untapped potential for energy savings in multifamily buildings. It notes that nearly a third of U.S. households live in multifamily housing, which collectively spends $22 billion on energy annually. Comprehensive retrofit programs could save 30% on natural gas and 15% on electricity usage, amounting to $3.4 billion in annual savings nationwide.
