What is efficient electrification? Investment in the overall efficiency of buildings before installing electric systems and appliances. An example of efficient electrification can include building envelope upgrades, such as insulation and air sealing. Building owners should prioritize efficient equipment such as heat pumps, rather than electric resistance systems when making investment decisions.
