They declined to comment for this story.The Rocky Mountain Institute, a Boulder-based international energy-efficiency policy group, has issued studies finding building electrification in Denver will make new construction cheaper by eliminating needed natural gas infrastructure.But low-cost natural gas in Colorado makes it possible that some all-electric buildings could cost more to operate than natural gas-using buildings, RMI noted.
