Abstract:
|
This report presents the results of a survey of 251 households in England that was undertaken to
monitor the electrical power demand and energy consumption over the period May 2010 to July
2011. The project was funded by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, the
Department of Energy and Climate Change and the Energy Saving Trust.
Participating households were selected by Ipsos MORI on the basis of the life-stage of the
occupants. Of the 251 households surveyed, 26 were monitored for a period of one calendar year
and the rest were monitored for periods of one month at intervals throughout the year. The dwellings
were also given an Energy Performance Certificate survey and the occupants were requested to
complete survey questions about their environmental attitudes. During the course of the survey
period, the occupants also completed diaries of use for some of the products they used. The data
were checked and analysed by Enertech and all the project data were compiled into a database. The
project was managed by Intertek.
