About the HERS Index

The Home Energy Rating System (HERS) is a 0 to 100 index assigned to building projects by certified RESNET raters. The HERS Index number relates the modeled project with a reference home that meets the minimum International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) code requirements. 

For example, say a home is modeled using REM/Rate and the model indicates that the home will use 50% less energy then the reference home: The HERS score is 50. A HERS score is the North American industry standard used for rating energy efficiency of a project.
