Survey of Commercial and Institutional Energy Use (SCIEU) - Buildings 2009

DATA DICTIONARY

Survey of Commercial and Institutional Energy Use (SCIEU) - Buildings 2009.

The objective of this buildings-based survey is to establish baseline energy consumption figures against which new policies and programs geared toward energy efficiency in commercial and institutional buildings can be measured. The buildings-based component of the SCIEU collects building characteristics and energy consumption estimates by building type and by climate zone. These data tables provide estimates of the number of buildings, floor space, energy consumption and energy intensity at a desegregated level for the target population. The target population includes buildings in which at least 50 percent of the floor space is devoted to commercial or institutional activities.

Due to rounding, numbers may not add up to the total shown, and some numbers may differ from one table to the next. Quality indicators (Q.I.) classify each estimate according to its quality as follows: A–Excellent, B–Good, C–Acceptable, D–Use with caution, F–Too unreliable to be published and X–suppressed due to confidentiality. See the “How to read these tables” section.
