Interesting that you mention energy efficiency, because in the U.S., that's where a lot of value can be easily created (compared to cleantech). Just by smart insulation, and changes in materials, a lot of costs could be saved for heating. It's also a topic of collaboration between CH and the U.S.
Soo much value, sure !
