SR260/6 Building Energy End-use Study (BEES) Year 4: Electrical loads (2011)

This report presents data and analysis drawn from the Building Energy End-use Study (BEES) detailed monitoring carried out during the 4th year of this 6-year study. This report looks at the variability in electrical usage density and patterns in the premises studied. Understanding the variability in loads is valuable for efficient electrical wiring in buildings and for electricity supply planning.

One of seven interim reports providing a snapshot of analysis completed to date, the data and analysis in this report contributes to answering research questions 4 to 6. When all data collection has been completed, further analysis will be reported on with the full sample including relationships between end-uses, building types and services.
