Reportlinker Adds Energy-Efficient Home Renovations Market, Part 2: Appliances &
Lighting

Green building is no longer just a fad; in fact, energy-efficient remodeling and
renovating is one of the few aspects of the U.S. construction business that
still holds a positive outlook in the midst of the economic turmoil in 2009. 

The U.S. residential construction market was $363 billion in 2008, down 41% from
its high of $620 billion in 2006. The home renovations market was $188 billion
in 2008, down 18% percent from 2007. But SBI estimates that the home energy
efficiency renovations market in the U.S. was $21 billion in 2008; down only 13%
percent from 2007`s $24 billion. 

Remodeling to improve a home`s energy efficiency instead of buying a new home
has become a preferred option in today`s market. In fact, the National
Association of Home Builders found that 32% of home builders also provided
remodeling services in 2008. Homeowners are still seeing the benefits of
improving their home`s energy efficiency even in the economic instability of
2009. With energy consciousness shooting to the forefront of the media during
the 2008 oil price peak, the Propane Education & Research Council has found 80%
of homeowners are now concerned about the energy efficiency of their homes. 

Home builders and remodelers have been quick to provide remodeling services that
are focused on energy conservation and green building practices; as an example,
85% of remodelers surveyed by the National Association of Home Builders in 2008
used energy-efficient windows on the majority of their projects. Retailers and
manufacturers of building projects, residential builders and remodelers, and
even state and federal organizations now have to be able to provide
knowledgeable energy conservation expertise to succeed in their business. 

Home energy efficiency analysis now uses a `whole building` approach, affecting
all categories of building materials, from windows and doors to insulation to
completely eliminating air leaks. To fully embrace this view, this report looks
at the impact energy-efficient building products are having on the renovations
market in a number of categories:

* Part I explores the market for energy-efficient doors and windows, caulking
and weather stripping, and insulation used in home renovation projects.
* Part II examines the energy-efficient appliance and lighting markets for home
remodeling.
* Part III looks at energy-efficient heating and cooling systems and the growing
trend of energy-efficient roof renovations.

Report Methodology

Report data were obtained from government sources, including the U.S. Department
of Commerce, U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development and ENERGY STAR; trade associations such as the National Association
of Home Builders (NAHB), and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry
(NARI); research organizations such as the American Council for an
Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) and Harvard University`s Joint Center for
Housing Studies (JCHS); websites of home improvement contractors, manufacturers
and dealers, industry analysts and print and online business and trade journals.


Consumer demographics and spending trends derive from data compiled by Simmons
Market Research Bureau, New York, NY. Trends and recent developments in the
industry come directly from personal interviews with key players in
manufacturing and sales of energy-efficient building products and discussions
with knowledgeable insiders of associations such as the National Association of
Home Builders.
