Description

The Building Energy Data Book (2011) is a compendium of data from a variety of data sets and includes statistics on residential and commercial building energy consumption. Data tables contain statistics related to construction, building technologies, energy consumption, and building characteristics. The Building Technologies Office (BTO) within the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy developed this resource to provide a comprehensive set of buildings- and energy-related data. ###The Data Book has not been updated since 2011.### The data sets comprising the Data Book are now publicly available in user-friendly formats and you can use them to find data relevant to your questions. Please find below a list of Energy Information Administration (EIA) data sets that BTO consults: * [Annual Energy Outlook](http://www.eia.gov/forecasts/aeo/) Projections in the Annual Energy Outlook 2015 (AEO2015) focus on the factors expected to shape U.S. energy markets through 2040. * [Monthly Energy Review](http://www.eia.gov/totalenergy/data/monthly/index.cfm#consumption) A publication of recent and historical energy statistics. * [Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS)](http://www.eia.gov/consumption/residential/) A nationally representative sample of housing units that specially trained interviewers collect energy characteristics, usage patterns, and household demographics. * [Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS)](http://www.eia.gov/consumption/commercial/) A national sample survey that collects information on the stock of U.S. commercial buildings, including their energy-related building characteristics and energy usage data. Questions about the above resources can be [directed to the relevant EIA subject matter expert](http://www.eia.gov/about/contact/).
