I think many people are willing to consider eco friendly technologies but will shy away once they see the price differential. Adding 25% to the cost of a lake house makes even less sense if you don't live there year round. And even if you are there year round, the payback is long, long term, particularly given the already low cost of living in the area. Finally, I think the kind of clientele that would be willing to pay the extra cost for the feel good quality are not typical Alabama-Georgia-Tennessee residents.

I think they would get more bang for their buck in northern California, Oregon and Washington.
