If you're a lower income renter who could most benefit from lower utility costs, this isn't available to you.Of course there's important details - the difference between cost of electricity units and transmission of them, utility overhead costs, reliability, economies of centralized generation vs distributed, peak demand, energy storage, and a whole host of other things.

I am planning a new over-and-under duplex build and want to use the best methods to reduce sound transmission between floors.I read suspending drywall on resilient channel attached to Sound Isolation Clips from the floor joists are a good way to reduce vibrations to the lower floor.
