Are historical CBECS data available?
CBECS has been conducted since 1979; the 2003 CBECS is the eighth iteration. For the 1999, 1995, and 1992 CBECS, all published data and reports are available on the CBECS website, in the form of detailed tables, public use data, and special reports. Selected data from the 1989, 1986, 1983, and 1979 CBECS can be found in the tables of the special report “Buildings and Energy in the 1980’s.” Also, the “Annual Energy Review” includes a couple summary tables with data from every CBECS (Tables 2.9 and 2.10).
