UCLA HEED Exports Title24 XML Schema

Sean Feurtado commented on Home Energy Magazine's blog post Editorial: The Rising Cost of Water
"I think energy consumption IS related to water consumption, Pumps used for water transportation use most of the planets energy.  You address two issues when you assess water efficiency which is an approach most should be aware of. "
