Grounded Podcast: Oregon Scores!

Our third episode of Grounded focuses on Home Energy Performance Scoring.

A Home Energy Score can help homeowners and homebuyers better understand how a home uses energy – and what steps they can take to improve energy efficiency.

Oregon is on the leading edge of Home Energy Scores in the United States. A voluntary state-wide program and a mandatory City of Portland program are helping set the standard for a more energy-efficient housing market.

Oregon Department of Energy Analyst Roger Kainu is joined by Andria Jacob and Kyle Diesner with the City of Portland Bureau of Planning & Sustainability to talk home energy scoring in Oregon.
