    Description

    Renewable energy production in the United States reached an all-time high of 8,788 trillion British thermal units in 2024. Consumption followed closely behind at 8,581 trillion British thermal units. U.S. investment in clean energy The United States' investment in renewables has greatly increased in the past two decades. Clean energy in the United States currently comes primarily from wind, solar, and hydropower, with significant contributions from biofuel and biomass - also known as biopower. Investments are motivated not only by environmental concerns, but also by unstable markets for traditional fossil fuels. Crisis in oil markets When oil prices peaked during the 2008 financial crisis, investors turned toward developing renewables as well as increasing domestic oil production as a more economically viable source. During the 2010s oil glut, oversupply of shale oil followed the expansion of extraction methods such as hydraulic fracturing, used to access the country’s large reserves of sandstone deep underground.

    By Department of Energy [source]

    About this dataset

    The Building Energy Data Book (2011) is an invaluable resource for gaining insight into the current state of energy consumption in the buildings sector. This dataset provides comprehensive data on residential, commercial and industrial building energy consumption, construction techniques, building technologies and characteristics. With this resource, you can get an in-depth understanding of how energy is used in various types of buildings - from single family homes to large office complexes - as well as its impact on the environment. The BTO within the U.S Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy developed this dataset to provide a wealth of knowledge for researchers, policy makers, engineers and even everyday observers who are interested in learning more about our built environment and its energy usage patterns

    How to use the dataset

    This dataset provides comprehensive information regarding energy consumption in the buildings sector of the United States. It contains a number of key variables which can be used to analyze and explore the relations between energy consumption and building characteristics, technologies, and construction. The data is provided in both CSV format as well as tabular format which can make it helpful for those who prefer to use programs like Excel or other statistical modeling software.

    In order to get started with this dataset we've developed a guide outlining how to effectively use it for your research or project needs.

    • Understand what's included: Before you start analyzing the data, you should read through the provided documentation so that you fully understand what is included in the datasets. You'll want to be aware of any potential limitations or requirements associated with each type of data point so that your results are valid and reliable when drawing conclusions from them.

    • Clean up any outliers: You may need to take some time upfront investigating suspicious outliers within your dataset before using it in any further analyses — otherwise, they can skew results down the road if not dealt with first-hand! Furthermore, they could also make complex statistical modeling more difficult as well since they artificially inflate values depending on their magnitude within each example data point (i.e., one outlier could affect an entire model’s prior distributions). Missing values should also be accounted for too since these may not always appear obvious at first glance when reviewing a table or graphical representation - but accurate statistics must still be obtained either way no matter how messy things seem!

    • Exploratory data analysis: After cleaning up your dataset you'll want to do some basic exploring by visualizing different types of summaries like boxplots, histograms and scatter plots etc.. This will give you an initial case into what trends might exist within certain demographic/geographic/etc.. regions & variables which can then help inform future predictive models when needed! Additionally this step will highlight any clear discontinuous changes over time due over-generalization (if applicable), making sure predictors themselves don’t become part noise instead contributing meaningful signals towards overall effect predictions accuracy etc…

    • Analyze key metrics & observations: Once exploratory analyses have been carried out on rawsamples post-processing steps are next such as analyzing metrics such ascorrelations amongst explanatory functions; performing significance testing regression models; imputing missing/outlier values and much more depending upon specific project needs at hand… Additionally – interpretation efforts based

    Research Ideas

    • Creating an energy efficiency rating system for buildings - Using the dataset, an organization can develop a metric to rate the energy efficiency of commercial and residential buildings in a standardized way.
    • Developing targeted campaigns to raise awareness about energy conservation - Analyzing data from this dataset can help organizations identify areas of high energy consumption and create targeted campaigns and incentives to encourage people to conserve energy in those areas.
    • Estimating costs associated with upgrading building technologies - By evaluating various trends in building technologies and their associated costs, decision-makers can determine the most cost-effective option when it comes time to upgrade their structures' energy efficiency...

Description

Renewable energy production in the United States reached an all-time high of 8,788 trillion British thermal units in 2024. Consumption followed closely behind at 8,581 trillion British thermal units. U.S. investment in clean energy The United States' investment in renewables has greatly increased in the past two decades. Clean energy in the United States currently comes primarily from wind, solar, and hydropower, with significant contributions from biofuel and biomass - also known as biopower. Investments are motivated not only by environmental concerns, but also by unstable markets for traditional fossil fuels. Crisis in oil markets When oil prices peaked during the 2008 financial crisis, investors turned toward developing renewables as well as increasing domestic oil production as a more economically viable source. During the 2010s oil glut, oversupply of shale oil followed the expansion of extraction methods such as hydraulic fracturing, used to access the country’s large reserves of sandstone deep underground.
