Measuring household fuel consumption on the Standard Living Cycle

Energy, 1982, vol. 7, issue 6, 489-504

Abstract: A simple model for monitoring natural gas consumption in large aggregates of houses is developed by extending single-house analyses. The parameters of the model are baseload consumption, rate of fuel use per degree-day for heating, and a reference temperature. Accuracy of the results is assessed by means of confidence intervals derived for the nonlinear model.
