Southern "hot" cities more energy sustainable than northern "cold" cities?

Manufacturers have been moving south to avoid heating costs for decades.

Well DUH. Heat requires more energy than just moving air around, if you include the energy cost of burning fuel to make the heat. Why this is a lightbulb moment is beyond me.

I think people in Phoenix are doing more than "moving air around" to keep cool. Do air conditioner compressors and condensers run without power? Wink
Good point.
