Household Energy Use in Pennsylvania's Delaware Valley: An Energy-Focused Housing Stock Analysis

This report covers the housing stock analysis of the Energy to Communities Delaware Valley project. The analysis covers the housing stock of Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties that border Philadelphia County in southeast Pennsylvania. It focuses primarily on single-family houses including their existing characteristics and energy consumption and the potential impact of various retrofit measure packages applied to them. This analysis was a collaborative effort among the project team, including national lab researchers and local organizations. It derives primarily from results of modeling tools from the national labs, especially NLR's ResStock, supplemented by key information from the study area.
