Become Part of the Future of Home Building

New York ENERGY STAR Homes is more than an energy efficiency program. Differentiate yourself in the marketplace by providing a superior product to your customers that is gentler on the environment, while earning valuable incentives.

New York ENERGY STAR Homes offer customers:

• 30% lower energy bills than conventionally built homes
• A quieter, more comfortable home
• Improved indoor air quality
• Greater durability with low maintenance
• Environmental benefits

Builders must have their building plans and homes reviewed by an independent third-party Home Energy Rater who is also certified under the program. Builders must compensate Raters for these services.

To help you through the process and ensure your success, the New York State Builders Association Research and Educational Foundation (NYSBA REF) will provide you with networking opportunities, as well as administrative and technical support.
