Abstract
The Residential Solar Data Center project staff in the Center for Building Technology, National Bureau of Standards, is responsible for the establishment and operation of a computerized database containing non-instrumented residential data generated by the Solar Heating and Cooling Demonstration Program sponsored by the Department of Energy and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This document includes computer reports of data contained in the Grant file, one of six computer files comprising the database. These reports contain data recorded on applications submitted to HUD by organizations or individual builders applying for grants to build solar energy systems in new and/or existing homes. To date, approximately 450 grants have been awarded in the first four award cycles.
