This paper explores the dimensions of energy data for residential and commercial buildings, utilizing resources from the DOE Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, EIA, and various global energy agencies. It discusses potential data uses such as historical, present and projected values, market segmentation, and estimating energy savings and financial feasibility in diverse regions. Key insights into consumption patterns by appliance and demographics, along with current and projected technology penetrations, are analyzed. The paper aims to enhance understanding and investment decisions in energy efficiency programs.

EIA Resources Dimensions of Analysis: Residential Commercial buildings/SIC End Use: heat, AC, HW 5 year increments to 2030 From DOE EE&RE Building Energy Data Book, November 2008
Potential Uses of Data • Historical, present, projected values • EIA Annual Energy Outlook – baseline BAU projections –good for comparison • Estimating energy savings, $ savings, carbon savings • Segmenting markets • Region • Building type • Assessing financial feasibility in different regions • Understanding/comparing investment in energy, other sectors (ex: supply side, new building construction, home improvements, etc.)
