Of course, but being more efficient isn't the same as having a smaller overall footprint. The point is that wealthy customers probably have bigger houses that require more energy to heat and cool in absolute terms, even if it's done more efficiently relative to poorer folks.
- HeyLaughingBoy 12y agoBe careful with that assumption. My previous 2000 sq ft house cost less to heat and cool than the earlier 900 sq. ft. house we moved from. One having been built 30 years more recently than the other meant that the insulation was of far better quality even though the older house was much smaller and had an almost brand new HVAC system.
