As a result the neighborhood presents some particular characteristics, such as offices in old boats retrofitted in accordance with high efficiency standards (insulation, etc).
Home Star would add rebates on both equipment and installation costs for a range of measures to make the home more energy efficient, including high efficiency heating and cooling systems, insulation, air and duct sealing and appliances.
The guidelines stipulate improved insulation, windows designed to improve thermal performance, high efficiency heating and cooling systems that are properly sized for the home, and reduced air infiltration, among other things.
Meanwhile, wind and building-integrated solar modules with high efficiency photovoltaic materials can supplement our electrical generation capability, as stricter building codes and improved insulation can decrease the energy used to heat and cool buildings.
There are six measures comprising (1) insulation for the evaporator, (2) heat recovery from waste water, (3) pre-heating for fermented liquor, (4) high efficiency evaporator, (5) high efficiency condenser, and (6) high efficiency stove & air-fuel ratio improvement.
Blue indicates high efficiency; red low efficiency.
An insulation partition was designed in a seeded directional solidification (DS) furnace of industrial-size to produce quasi-single crystalline silicon ingot for solar cells of high efficiency.
A high efficiency rating also affects cost.
The environmentally rigged EarthRoamer XV-LT all-terrain expedition vehicle that I had rented with my family, equipped with rooftop solar panels, lower-polluting biodiesel fuel, high-efficiency lighting and insulation built for the coldest nights of Alaska, was having an electronic hissy fit.
Improvements could include attic and wall cavity insulation, high-efficiency windows and appliances, duct-sealing, or rooftop solar.
