The Residential Building Stock Assessment (RBSA) published in 2019 is the first update to the 2015 Residential Statewide Baseline Study (RSBS) of New York State. This New York State Energy Research Development Authority (NYSERDA)-led assessment is a research study designed to inform future New York State energy planning efforts. The overall objective of this study is to understand the current residential building stock, new and existing residential single-family homes, and associated energy use, including saturation of energy consuming equipment by fuel, penetration of energy-efficient equipment, and information on building characteristics and energy management practices. Study results will inform future energy planning, and identify and design potential energy efficiency programs to help homeowners and occupants across the State increase energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption. The study was completed using 456 on-site inspections and 2,419 online and telephone surveys. This dataset represents only the data collected from surveys conducted from September 28, 2018 to December 3, 2018. The on-site inspections are a subset from the online and telephone survey respondents. On-site inspections were conducted between October 10, 2018 and December 15, 2018.
