    HVAC & Water Heater Energy Efficiency Calculator

    How is the CO2 reduction estimated?

    It multiplies the annual kWh saved by 0.92 lb/kWh, the US national grid-average carbon factor (EIA/EPA, roughly 2024). This is a rough national figure: coal-heavy grids such as WV, KY, and WY exceed 1.5 lb/kWh, while renewables-heavy grids like VT, ID, and WA run under 0.5, per EPA eGRID.
