This post was originally published on this site

Happy National Energy Awareness Month! With 22% of U.S. electricity generation expected to come from renewable sources in 2022, the personal-finance website WalletHub released its report on 2022’s Most & Least Energy-Efficient States, as well as accompanying videos and expert commentary.

To gauge the financial impact of doing more with less energy – the average American household spends at least $2,000 per year on utilities and another $2,148 on motor fuel and oil – WalletHub compared the auto- and home-energy efficiency in 48 U.S. states. Due to data limitations, Alaska and Hawaii were excluded from our analysis.

Energy Efficiency in California (1=Most Energy-Efficient; 24=Avg.):

  • 12th – Home Energy Efficiency
  • 4th – Vehicle-Fuel Efficiency
  • 7th – Transportation Efficiency
