Meeting the<br />

Thousand Home Challenge<br />

• This home’s customized threshold to meet or exceed is<br />

11,247 kWh/Yr (Threshold Allowance OPTION B)<br />

• This household will officially meet the <strong>THC</strong> when the<br />

application is completed, & documentation of 1 year of<br />

household consumption verifies that energy use is less<br />

than 11,247 kWh (net total site household energy)<br />

• This household is on track for exceeding its<br />

threshold by a factor of two!<br />

NOTE: <strong>THC</strong> OPTION A (75% reduction from previous use) cannot be used because<br />

the energy value of the previous year’s wood use is not verifiable. OPTION B is not<br />

relative to previous use; inputs include weather, house size, number of occupancy and<br />

type of fuel used for heating<br />
