A description if given of one of three local-government energy-management projects sponsored by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Between May 1975 and May 1977, the City of Portland, Oregon, a consortium of California cities, and a number of Massachusetts communities were involved in demonstrations of various energy-management processes. Some cities have conserved energy as a result of project actions, other cities await implementation of choices and/or recommendations. From the Portland Energy Conservation Demonstration Project, this report details the collection of historic data on community energy-use patterns in the separate sectors of consumption is discussed. Sectors covered are residential, transportation, commercial, industrial, and governmental. Problems of working with secondary data such as differing levels of geographic aggregation, differing reporting periods, and data not being current are discussed.
