2007 CBECS Status
The 2007 Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) building interviews were conducted between February, 2008 and September, 2008. We will begin to contact energy suppliers in February, 2009. We are currently processing the building characteristics data and expect to release the first preliminary results in mid-2009.

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.
