The aim of the project was to investigate the potential for electricity savings by replacing existing appliances and lighting with more efficient alternatives. The study also investigated the opportunities for reducing peak electricity demand. Extensive analysis was undertaken on appliance ownership, efficiency labels, actual efficiencies and potential for electricity savings in different social groups. The study has also examined the scope for reducing peak electricity demand. Households were selected to take part in the survey on the basis of the life-stage of the occupants. Of the 250 households surveyed, 26 were monitored for a period of one year and the rest were monitored for periods of one month at intervals throughout the year. The dwellings were also given an Energy Performance Certificate survey and the occupants were requested to complete survey questions about their environmental attitudes. During the course of the survey period, the occupants also completed diaries of use for some of the products they used.
