- Abstract
- In addition to recording overall energy consumption (for the 1975-1980 period), the demonstration collected considerable additional energy-related measurements from approximately 240 houses (including some 40 unweatherized control houses) at 12 sites. These measurements probably constitute the most extensive and comprehensive data base on real energy usage of real houses extant. The report describes the various measurements that were obtained and how they were obtained. It contains house-by-house inventories of the data actually present in the data base and, as an access aid for further study of the data, it describes the media in which the data exist.
