2020's Most & Least Energy-Efficient States - WalletHub Study

Happy National Energy Awareness Month! With residential electricity consumption increasing this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the personal-finance website WalletHub released its report on 2020's Most & Least Energy-Efficient States, as well as accompanying videos.

To gauge the financial impact of doing more with less energy - the average American household spends at least $2,000 per year on utilities and another $2,094 on motor fuel and oil - WalletHub compared the auto- and home-energy efficiency in 48 U.S. states. Due to data limitations, Alaska and Hawaii were excluded from our analysis.
