Patterns of residential wood and electricity use: Results from the Hood River Conservation Project
We identify significantly different daily patterns of wood and electricity use among 100 houses that contained both wood heat output and electricity use submeters installed as part of the Hood River Conservation Project. It is found that patterns include low wood/high electricity, high wood/low electricity, and low wood/low electricity profiles. Profiles are not differentiable by day of week but differ widely as outdoor temperatures drop. Houses that are small in size tend to use high electricity/low wood patterns whereas low electricity/high wood patterns are utilized by larger households and houses.
