This report on residential energy consumption in San Francisco, California is part of a continuing program devoted to the analysis of residential energy consumption in the United States . In initiating this research program in 1971,the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HLID) gave to the contractor, Hittman Associates,Inc., (HAI)the task of "...identifying means for obtaining greater efficiencies in the utilization of energy in residences, in order to obtain lower per capita consumption without modification of existing life-styles." Subsequent reports were published which dealt with the consumption and efficient use of energy in Baltimore/Washington area residences.

This report is part of the collection of scanned historical documents available to the public.
