Save up to 40% on your energy bills.
To earn the ENERGY STAR, a home must meet strict guidelines for energy efficiency set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) which make a home at least 15% more energy efficient than homes built to the 2004 International Residential Code (IRC), and include additional energy-saving features that typically make them 20-30% more efficient than standard homes.
At Dominion, we go well beyond those requirements. We include additional energy-saving features that, when combined, can save you up to 40% on your energy bills.
Collectively, the ENERGY STAR rated homes Dominion built last year alone will save our customers approximately $181,260 on utility bills each year. The environmental benefits of these ENERGY STAR qualified are equal to the equivalent of:
- Eliminating the emissions from 186.2 vehicles;

- Planting 307.8 acres of trees; or,
- Saving the environment 2,208,940 pounds of CO2 per year.
