Residential demand for energy: estimates of residential stocks of energy using capital. Volume II. Final report
A program of research into the demand for residential energy requires the construction of an adequate data base on the stock of energy using capital. This report details the procedures used to assemble such a data base. The development of data on housing stocks was the most important element of this analysis. Bureau of the Census figures were available for 1960 and 1970. Two methods were used to obtain annual estimates of the stock. In the first, data on housing permits authorized were used as investment and a constant rate of depreciation was assumed. The second employed an adjusted annual change in the number of residential electric customers as a proxy for investment and depreciation. These methods yielded substantially similar results.
