The savings achieved through integrative design vary by case, but all are significant. The performance and baseline for 13 new construction residential case studies are included here and can be compared to the average physical energy use intensity for new residential buildings in the EIA’s
Annual Energy Outlook 2010.

Our analysis revealed that leveraging the best practices in integrative design in new construction and retrofits for both commercial and residential buildings can generate savings that range from 42% to 87% below business-as-usual energy demand.

The costs of saving energy via integrative design vary widely. This scatterplot compares the physical energy use intensity of integrative design cases to the cost of conserved energy for these projects. In some cases, integrative design yields greater savings than standard design with no (or sometimes negative) incremental cost. In other cases, the building may have a significant cost premium.
