Data from First-of-its-Kind Residential Energy Study Now Available on OpenNY
Data will help in targeting opportunities to reduce energy use in homes
ALBANY, N.Y. — The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) announced that data from a first-of-its-kind study that compiled energy-related information from more than 3,000 homes in New York are now available to the public on open.ny.gov for use in identifying opportunities for energy efficiency improvements.
The Residential Statewide Baseline Study was developed by NYSERDA to understand the residential building stock and associated energy use, and the penetration of energy-efficient equipment, building characteristics, and energy management practices. The five volume study also includes a HVAC market assessment to identify the baseline conditions for residential non-electric heating and water heating equipment and central air conditioning in the state.
