A wide range of statistical techniques utilized in this project have proved to be applicable to the problem of predicting various dependent variables associated with energy consumption in single-family detached residences. The dependent variables studied include site line Btu's, source Btu's, equivalent kilowatt hours, and dollar cost of energy. Data for these variables were monthly gas and electric consumption for each residence. The 23 independent variables can be divided into five general categories: (1) mechanical equipment and major appliances; (2) building features; (3) respondent socio-physical descriptors; (4) respondent attitude factors; and (5) occupant characteristics.
