Singapore Household Energy Consumption Study
Singapore Household Energy Consumption Study (SHECS) is an effort by the National Environment Agency (NEA) which aims to understand the general energy consumption patterns of the Singapore population and demographics. NEA is looking for 600 households from different housing types in Singapore to participate in the study. As part of the study, participating households will be monitored on their energy consumption for a period of 4 months for analysis and insights. The study will commence from January 2023 to October 2023.
Households participating in the study are required to:
- Complete a set of survey questionnaires
- Allow the installation of smart meters to study energy consumption of their residential unit for a minimum period of 4 months. Compact smart metering sensors will be installed on the main distribution box and additional smart plugs will be used on energy appliances.
Benefits
As a participant, you will get to:
- Understand if your household energy consumption is more than the average of similar household types.
- Have a deeper understanding of your home appliances’ energy consumption.
- Know how to make easy improvements to be more energy efficient catered for your household.
Selected participating households will be provided a mobile-friendly and intuitive mobile application to access their household’s energy consumption to enable participants to understand their consumption patterns on cost savings, energy kWh & carbon footprint. The app will also provide alerts and notifications for cultivating habits towards lowering energy consumption.
