DEVELOPING APPLIANCE ENERGY USE PROFILES FOR RESIDENTIAL BUILDING ENERGY MODELING

Kristen Cetin, Atila Novoselac

Abstract: One of the largest users of electricity in the average U.S. household is appliances, which when aggregated, account for approximately 30% of electricity used in the residential sector in the United States. Building energy modelling of residential homes must accurately portray these appliance loads on a temporal scale in order to best represent today's appliance energy use, and to predict how possible future changes to their use, such as peak load shifting through smart" appliance demand response may help reduce the increasingly stressed electric grid infrastructure. This study provide preliminary results of the analysis of disaggregated energy consumption data collected from 40 homes in Austin
