Energy Efficient Homes How much energy does an energy-efficient home use?

Question by : How much energy does an energy-efficient home use?
Ideally, if one were to consider energy efficiency from the building process and utilized technologies such as compressed earth blocks, a geothermal heat transfer system, energy efficient windows and solar screens, in addition to energy efficient appliances and electronics throughout the home, approximately how much energy would such a home consume if you assume typical appliance/electronic usage? Assume a 2000~2400 square foot home in Texas. The idea would be to use solar panels to power the home. What about if you include powering an electric car into this demand (something like the upcoming Tesla Model S)?
