According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA), the
nation's approximately 130 million housing units account for about
23 percent of total energy consumption in the United States.
Approximately 2 million of these housing units are manufactured
homes (i.e., mobile homes) that were built prior to 1976, when new
standards for energy efficient construction became effective. These
older manufactured homes are generally considered to have some of
the poorest energy efficiency of all housing units. Many of the
occupants of these homes qualify for federal assistance to help pay
for their energy bills through the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program
(LIHEAP). This book examines whether improving the energy
efficiency of older manufactured homes or replacing them with
newer, more energy-efficient models would save the federal
government money by reducing LIHEAP costs.
