The Pacific Northwest is currently experiencing a dramatic and exciting transformation in the way the region produces and consumes energy. Prompted by federal legislation and local initiative, the region is promoting the conservation of energy as the primary new energy resource. In the residential sector, energy efficiency standards for new electrically heated construction have been proposed, and a demonstration program is underway to examine the costs and energy savings associated with building houses to levels of higher energy efficiency. This report examines the energy-efficient construction costs, reported by builders in this program, of a select group of recently built ''matched pair'' houses (these were two otherwise identical houses except that one was built to ''super'' energy-efficient standards while the other one was built to current energy codes).
