2007 CBECS Status Report
The 2007 Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) is currently in progress. Interviewers from the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) are conducting in-person interviews across the U.S. on behalf of EIA. If your building has been selected, we urge you to participate. This is your opportunity to be included in the only comprehensive source of energy use and related characteristics of commercial buildings in the U.S. Your cooperation will increase the quality of a dataset that will be an integral input into energy research and the formulation of energy policy.
Projected release dates of data and preliminary data tables will be posted here. |
The Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS)
is a national sample survey that collects information on the
stock of U.S. commercial buildings, their energy-related building
characteristics, and their energy consumption and expenditures.
Commercial buildings include all buildings in which at least
half of the floorspace is used for a purpose that is not residential,
industrial, or agricultural, so they include building types
that might not traditionally be considered "commercial,"
such as schools, correctional institutions, and buildings used
for religious worship.
The CBECS was first conducted in 1979; the eighth, and most
recent survey, was conducted in 2003. CBECS is currently conducted
on a quadrennial basis.
