Our
History
In 1984, Alan Meier,
a researcher at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory,
realized that he and his colleagues were conducting
and publishing studies that could change the
way homes and multifamily units were designed
and built. However, this valuable information
was not reaching the architects, builders, contractors,
engineers, auditors, and utility managers who
could best utilize it.
With that realization, Meier founded Energy
Auditor & Retrofitter, a nonprofit
educational publication devoted to filling the
information gap between research and the practical
applications of building science. The original
magazine became the vehicle to disseminate information
to those professionals who most directly affect
our homes’ energy efficiency, comfort,
safety, durability, and affordability.
|
|
| In 1988, the editors
realized that the magazine’s material was
relevant to a much broader audience than had originally
been envisioned, and Home Energy magazine
was born. The original audience had expanded to
include not only auditors and retrofitters, but
builders, contractors of every discipline, utility
and government program managers, building scientists,
and energy efficiency professionals. The building
science community has grown over the years, and
Home Energy has kept pace with this growth,
with articles covering topics from insulation to
ventilation, windows to weatherization, and Energy
Star to energy savings. Home Energy has
become the premier magazine of home performance.
There is no other publication that covers the broad
range of relevant building science news. |

Our
Mission
Home Energy magazine’s
mission is to disseminate objective and practical
information on residential energy efficiency,
performance, comfort, and affordability. It
is the only magazine that thoroughly covers
residential comfort issues from the only approach
that really works, systems engineering. Most
of Home Energy’s editorial content
comes directly from the people researching and
employing innovative design, building, and remodeling
practices and products. They are the experts
using the latest and best building techniques,
with an emphasis on implementing sound building
fundamentals and curing sick buildings. The
organization remains a nonprofit company devoted
to getting information out to the public. Advertising
costs are kept to the bare minimum to help defray
operating expenses.

Our
Future
As a cutting edge publication,
Home Energy continually evolves in
tandem with changes in building science. Our
thorough coverage of all of the most relevant
home performance news explains our strong renewal
rate—more than 80%. As we advance into
the new century, the field of home performance
is expanding, and so is Home Energy.
Home Energy magazine is published in
six bimonthly issues per year by Energy Auditor
& Retrofitter, Inc., a 501c3 nonprofit organization.
