Reframing the Importance of Buildings
• Buildings account for ~50% of
US energy use
• Building (operations) account for approximately ~75% of US
electrical consumption
Adapted from Architecture 2030 and the Energy Information Administration: http://www.architecture2030.org/current_situation/building_sector.html

Rebuilding & Renovating in the US
Over the next 3 decades:
• Half of buildings will be refurbished
• 150 billion sf will be built new
