Abstract

This paper reports on both data development and analysis relating to:
  • extension of the lab data regression/population UEC estimation method to the 2004-05 IOU’s recycling program,
  • incorporation of a small dually metered sample (ADM, 2006) as a basis for investigating and preliminarily establishing the “lab-in situ relationship(s)”, 
  • evidence on key issues: extrapolation from short term metering to full year consumption, the level of performance problems typical of recycling appliance populations, and
  • summary analysis on the causal determinants of differences between lab and in situ results.
