Energy efficiency is one of the strategies to conserve energy, which means reducing consumption and reducing costs. For this, measures to increase energy efficiency are necessary to mitigate the impacts on the electricity sector. The objective of this study is to simulate the application of the Energy Efficiency Labeling system in four residences, seeking to evaluate their level of energy efficiency, the residences presented low levels, for not using cross ventilation, besides the choice of the types of material to be used in buildings to reduce this heat transmission to the interior of the buildings. However, this is the reality of most residences in the city of Manaus, most of them still old, the lack of structure and knowledge about this process of energy efficiency, makes it necessary policies that are more effective and actions to minimize this condition of most residences.
