STORYBOOK HOMES RECEIVES ENERGY STAR AWARD!
Friday, November 14, 2008
StoryBook Homes earns award for building new homes that protect the environment through energy efficiency

Las Vegas, NV, June, 2008 – StoryBook Homes is please to announce that it has been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with a 2008 ENERGY STAR Leadership in Housing Award. This award recognizes the important contribution that our organization has made to energy-efficient construction and environmental protection by building 155 ENERGY STAR qualified homes last year. Collectively, these homes will save our customers approximately $69,285 on utility bills each year.

The environmental benefits of these ENERGY STAR qualified homes are the equivalent of:

• Eliminating the emissions from 76 vehicles;
• Saving 459,420 lbs of coal;
• Planting 125 acres of trees; or
• Saving the environment 901,015 pounds of CO2 per year.

Homes that earn the ENERGY STAR meet the strict guidelines for energy efficiency set by EPA. ENERGY STAR qualified homes are at least 15 percent more energy efficient than homes built to the 2004 International Residential Code (IRC), and include additional energy-saving features that typically make them 20-30% more efficient than standard homes. ENERGY STAR qualified homes can include a variety of energy-efficient features, such as effective insulation, high performance windows, tight construction and ducts, efficient heating and cooling equipment, and ENERGY STAR qualified lighting and appliances.

ENERGY STAR is growing strong in the residential new construction market. In 2007, over 120,000 new homes were constructed to meet ENERGY STAR guidelines, bringing the total number of ENERGY STAR qualified homes to almost 840,000. Owners of these homes are saving more than $200 million annually on their utility bills.
