Dreams of savings down the road go away when they factor in the additional mortgage cost created by that extra upfront cost.When I was still building in Northern Idaho and put in energy efficient devices advertising them was a negative and several asked if I would take out the non traditional high efficiency tankless hot water heating system.I build to green certification standards but I am  not willing to pay the inspector for certifying them green especially since he had to approve the plans for the homes to be built.I wish you much luck and support your intent but the reality, at least in my experience, is people are willing to talk about being green but won't pay extra or go out of there way to be green if there is even the slightest hindrance to their life style.
