Independent energy assessments confirm quality of EIA's commercial buildings data">Independent energy assessments confirm quality of EIA's commercial buildings data

(Tue, 15 Dec 2015) As part of an effort to make EIA?s energy consumption surveys as accurate and efficient as possible, EIA invited the National Research Council (NRC) to review the Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) data-gathering process and make recommendations for improvements. The NRC suggested sending professional energy assessors to some sites and comparing the data obtained from the survey to the data collected by the assessors. Results from the energy assessment data collection have largely confirmed the quality of data gathered by CBECS interviewers.
