Emission Reduction Data
Preserving our state for future generations is top of mind when we consider ways to shrink our carbon footprint. Let’s take a closer look at how modern heating oil and new heating equipment have helped NH homeowners lower emissions across our Granite State communities.
Common Questions About Reducing Emissions
How Are New Heating Systems Reducing CO2 Emissions in NH?
Higher-efficiency oil heating systems translate to more effective energy output. In fact, homeowners heating with modern heating oil can save up to 30% per year on fuel usage with the installation of a new, high-efficiency boiler or furnace. Paired with a 97% airborne emission reduction since 2016, it’s clear that today’s heating oil and new heating equipment are helping us protect our state for future generations.
How Many Tons of CO2 Emissions Have Been Saved So Far?
Modern heating oil and over 2,200 high-efficiency heating upgrades across the state is a winning combination, responsible for 5,533 tons of CO2 emissions reduced in New Hampshire. The best part? This number continues to grow with each high-efficiency heating upgrade that takes place!
How Much Will I Save on Emissions with New Heating Equipment?
According to the Department of Energy, upgrading your furnace or boiler from 56% to 90% efficiency in an average cold-climate house will save 2.5 tons of carbon dioxide emissions if you heat with today’s heating oil1. That incredible number is only made possible through the partnership of new high-efficiency heating equipment and modern heating oil.
