The CBECS is conducted in two data-collection stages: a Building Characteristics Survey and an
Energy Suppliers Survey. The Energy Suppliers Survey is initiated only if the respondents to the
Building Characteristics Survey cannot provide the energy consumption and expenditures
information, or the information provided fails edits within the survey instrument.
During the Building Characteristics Survey, respondents are asked questions about the building
size, how the building is used, types of energy-using equipment and conservation measures that
are present in the building, the types of energy sources used, and the amount and cost of energy
used in the building.
Upon completion of the Building Characteristics Survey, the Energy Suppliers Survey is initiated
for those cases that did not provide satisfactory consumption and expenditures information. This
Suppliers Survey obtains data about the building’s actual consumption of and expenditures for
energy from records maintained by energy suppliers. These billing data are collected in a mail
survey.
These building characteristics and energy supplier data are edited and then aggregated and
compiled into these Detailed Tables for publication. Other specialized data reports are available
on the CBECS web site at http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/cbecsreports.html. Microdata files
are also available for users who wish to perform their own analyses; these may be found at
http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/public_use.html.
For nearly all of the CBECS building activities, collection of the data with a building-level
questionnaire is straightforward because a knowledgeable respondent can provide accurate
information during the interview. However, use of a building questionnaire for two types of
mercantile buildings—strip shopping centers and enclosed malls—creates special problems.
These buildings contain anywhere from a few to more than 100 establishments, and each of the
establishments has characteristics that can—and do—vary significantly from the other
establishments. Therefore, no single respondent may be knowledgeable about the mall building
and all of its establishments.
We present the building characteristics data with two sets of building characteristics tables.
Tables A1-A8 include all commercial buildings while tables B1-B46 exclude mall buildings.
Tables A1-A8 have a limited number of row categories—only those for which CBECS collected
complete building information. The row categories are building floorspace, principal building
activity, year constructed, Census region and division, and number of establishments. The data in
these tables are representative of the entire commercial buildings sector and the data are
comparable with previous CBECS. Table Set B (which begins with Non-Mall Buildings) has the
full range of row categories of previous CBECS, but excludes mall buildings; therefore, these
data are not directly comparable to previous CBECS.
Similarly, there are two sets of consumption and expenditures tables. Tables C1-C38 exclude
mall buildings while tables C1A-C38A include all commercial buildings. Tables C1-C38 have
the full range of row categories of previous CBECS, but they exclude mall buildings; therefore,
these data are not directly comparable to previous CBECS. Tables C1-C38 have the same limited
row categories as Tables A1-A8 (see previous paragraph). The data in these tables are
representative of the entire commercial buildings sector and the data are comparable with
previous CBECS.
Tables A1-A8 and C1A-C38A contain basic information for all buildings including malls,
whereas Tables B1-B46 and C1-C38 contain information only for non-mall buildings, as
described in the previous section.
Tables B1 and B2 are summary tables. Tables B3-B21 address location, building size, year
constructed, building activity, number of workers, hours of operation, and types of occupancy.
Tables B22-B33 contain data about the energy sources used for all end uses and for specific
major end uses. Tables B34-B46 contain data about percent of floorspace heated, cooled, and lit,
and energy-using equipment types (heating, cooling, water heating, lighting, and refrigeration).
Tables C1-C12 and C1A-C12A contain energy usage data for the total of all major fuels
(electricity, natural gas, fuel oil, and district heat). Tables C13-C22 and C13A-C22A contain
electricity usage data. Tables C23-C32 and C23A-C32A contain natural gas usage data. Tables
C33-C36 and C33A-C36A contain fuel oil usage data. Tables C37, C38, C37A, and C38A
contain district heat usage data.
Column Categories
The column categories in the building characteristics tables mainly provide counts of number of
buildings or total floorspace by various building characteristics. For example, in Table A2, the
number in the “All Buildings” row and in the column labeled “Northeast” under the heading
“Number of Buildings (thousand)” tells us that there were an estimated 761,000 buildings in the
Northeast Census Region in 2003. This same column under the heading “Total Floorspace
(million square feet)” tells us that these buildings comprised 13,995,000,000 square feet of total
floorspace.
The column categories in the energy consumption and expenditures tables provide various
measures of energy use. The following terms, listed in alphabetical order, are explanations of
some of these columns that may require clarification:
Conditional Energy Intensity—The amount of electricity, natural gas, fuel oil, or district heat
used per square foot only in buildings using the specified energy source. For example, in Table
C15, data in the row labeled “Education” within the “Principal Building Activity” row category
and in the column labeled “Northeast” under “Electricity Energy Intensity” should be
interpreted: “In 2003, education buildings in the Northeast that used electricity as an energy
source used an average of 7.8 kilowatthours of electricity per square foot.”
Electricity—Site electricity. (See “site electricity” and “primary electricity” in this listing.)
Floorspace—The enclosed area in a building; the sum of the floorspace in all buildings in a
category.
Gross Energy Intensity—The ratio of the total amount of energy consumed by a group of
buildings to the total floorspace of those buildings, including buildings and floorspace where the
energy source is not used. For example, in Table C5, data in the row category “Education”
within the “Principal Building Activity” row category and in the column labeled “Northeast”
under “Energy Intensity for Sum of Major Fuels” should be interpreted: “In 2003, education
buildings in the Northeast consumed an average of 101.6 thousand Btu per square foot.”
Major Fuel—Major energy sources: electricity, natural gas, fuel oil, and district heat (district
steam or district hot water). Although electricity is technically not a fuel, “Major Fuel,” rather
than “Major Energy Source,” was retained as the title of this category to facilitate comparison of
previous CBECS data.
Primary Electricity—Site electricity plus the losses associated with the generation,
transmission, and distribution of the electricity. Most of the tables present statistics for site
consumption alone, but Tables C1 and C13 also provide consumption statistics for primary
electricity.
Site Electricity—The amount of electricity delivered to the commercial building. This amount
excludes losses associated with the generation, transmission, and distribution of the electricity.
(See “primary electricity” in this listing.) Most of the tables in this section provide statistics for
site electricity alone (not for primary electricity). When just the term “electricity” is used, the
reference is to site electricity.
Sum of Major Fuels—The total of site electricity, natural gas, fuel oil, and district heat.
Statistics in this column exclude data from the column “Primary Electricity.”
The row categories classify data by specific features, such as principal building activity or
energy sources used. Some of these categories are followed by the phrase “more than one may
apply.” This indicates overlapping categories, so that a particular building may be represented in
more than one line under this stub (for example, in “Energy Sources,” a building can use both
electricity and natural gas). In general, row stubs without this designation are mutually
exclusive—that is, they divide the population of buildings into distinct groups, so that a
particular building is represented in no more than one line under this stub.
Any line within a row category that is indented should be interpreted as being a subset of the
preceding line. For example, in the row category “Principal Building Activity,” there are two
indented lines under “Health Care”—“Inpatient” and “Outpatient.” These are both subsets of the
“Health Care” category.
Below are explanations of some of the row categories found in the tables that may require
clarification. These terms are listed in the order in which they occur in the tables. Definitions of
most terms found in the Detailed Tables can also be found in the Glossary
(http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/glossary_1.html).
All Buildings—In Tables A1 through A8, these are all roofed and walled structures whose
principal activities are nonresidential, nonagricultural, and nonindustrial and that are larger than
1,000 square feet (roughly twice the size of a two-car garage). In Tables B1 through B46 and C1
through C38, these are the same except they do not include enclosed malls or strip shopping
centers.
Principal Building Activity—A classification of the activity that occupies the most floorspace
in the buildings. Some building types are combined in the tables. For example, refrigerated and
non-refrigerated warehouses were combined as “warehouses,” and skilled nursing care buildings
were included in “lodging.” For a full description of the principal building activity categories,
see Description of Building Types (http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/building_types.html).
Census Region and Division—The geographical areas as defined by the U.S. Bureau of Census.
See Census Regions and Divisions Map (http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/census_maps.html)
for a map that shows the four Census Regions and nine Census Divisions.
Climate Zone—The five U.S. climate zones are based on the average number of cooling degree-
days (CDD) and heating degree-days (HDD) in a 30-year period (1971-2000). See U.S. Climate
Zone Map (http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs/climate_zones.html) for a map that shows the
five U.S. climate zones.
Vacancy Status—“Completely Vacant” buildings are those that are 100 percent vacant; “Mostly
Vacant” buildings are those in which the majority of the floorspace is vacant; “Partially Vacant”
are those in which some (but not a majority) of the floorspace is vacant or some portion of the
building was vacant for at least three consecutive months in 2003; and “Not At All Vacant” are
those in which no portion of the building was reported as vacant in 2003.
Energy Sources—Buildings using a specific type of energy (electricity, natural gas, fuel oil,
district heat [district steam or district hot water], district chilled water, propane, and any other
type of energy [wood, coal, or solar]) for any purpose. In the building characteristics tables, this
row indicates the number of buildings or floorspace in buildings that use each energy source for
any purpose. For example, in Table B38 (Heating Equipment), the figure in the column
"Furnaces" and the row "Natural Gas" should be interpreted: "1,314,000 buildings have a furnace
and also use natural gas for some purpose."
In the consumption and expenditures tables, this row indicates total consumption in buildings
that use each energy source for any purpose. For example, in Table C3, the figure in the column
“Sum of Major Fuel Consumption per Square Foot” and the row “Fuel Oil” should be
interpreted: “Buildings that used fuel oil for any purpose consumed an average 116,100 Btu of
total fuels per square foot in 2003.” (It should NOT be interpreted as the consumption
specifically of fuel oil.)
Energy End Uses—Buildings in which the specific end uses (heating, air-conditioning, water
heating, cooking, and manufacturing) were present, NOT the actual amount of energy used for
each end use. For example, in Table C1, data in the “Buildings with Cooling” row and in the
“Sum of Major Fuels” column should interpreted: “Buildings with cooling consumed a total of
5,464 trillion Btu of the major fuels” (It should NOT be interpreted as the amount of energy
specifically used for cooling”). Neither Tables C1-C38 nor C1A-C38A contain any data on
the energy consumption for end uses specifically. End use consumption estimates will be
published at a future date.
Space-Heating Energy Sources—Buildings using at least one of the major fuels, propane,
wood, or any other energy source for space heating. In the building characteristics tables, this
row indicates the number of buildings or floorspace in buildings that use each energy source for
space heating. For example, in Table B38 (Heating Equipment), the figure in the column "Heat
Pumps" and the row "Natural Gas" should be interpreted: "124,000 buildings have a heat pump
and also use natural gas as an energy source for space heating." (It should NOT be interpreted as
the number of buildings that use natural gas to power a heat pump. It is possible that they also
use electricity for space heating, and that electricity is the energy source used for the heat pump.)
In the consumption and expenditures tables, this row indicates total consumption in buildings
that use each energy source for space heating. For example, in Table C23, the figure in the
column “Natural Gas Consumption” and the row “Natural Gas” should be interpreted: “1,749
billion cubic feet of natural gas were used in buildings that use natural gas for space heating.” (It
should NOT be interpreted as the consumption of natural gas specifically for space heating.)
In the consumption and expenditures tables, this row indicates total consumption in buildings
that use each energy source for primary space heating. For example, in Table C23, the figure in
the column “Natural Gas Consumption” and the row “Electricity” should be interpreted: “171
billion cubic feet of natural gas were used in buildings that use electricity as their primary space
heating energy source.”
Cooling Energy Source—Buildings using electricity, natural gas, or district chilled water for
cooling. In the building characteristics tables, this row indicates the number of buildings or
floorspace in buildings that use each energy source for cooling. For example, in Table B40
(Cooling Equipment), the figure in the column "Heat Pumps" and the row "Natural Gas" should
be interpreted: "8,000 buildings have a heat pump for cooling and also use natural gas for
cooling." (It should NOT be interpreted as the number of buildings that use natural gas to power
a heat pump. It is possible that the heat pump is powered by electricity while the natural gas is
used to run a chiller.)
In the consumption and expenditures tables, this row indicates total consumption in buildings
that use each energy source for cooling. For example, in Table C13, the figure in the column
“Site Electricity Consumption” and the row “Electricity” should be interpreted: “814 billion kWh
of total electricity were used in buildings that use electricity as a cooling energy source.” (It
should NOT be interpreted as the consumption of electricity specifically for cooling.)
Water-Heating Energy Source—Buildings using one of the major fuels or propane for water
heating. In the building characteristics tables, this row indicates the number of buildings or
floorspace in buildings that use each energy source for water heating.
In the consumption and expenditures tables, this row indicates total consumption in buildings
that use each energy source for water heating. For example, in Table C23, the figure in the
column “Natural Gas Consumption” and the row “Natural Gas” should be interpreted: “1,463
billion cubic feet of natural gas were used in buildings that use natural gas for water heating.” (It
should NOT be interpreted as the consumption of natural gas specifically for water heating.)
In the consumption and expenditures tables, this row indicates total consumption in buildings
that use each energy source for cooking. For example, in Table C13, the figure in the column
“Site Electricity Consumption” and the row “Electricity” should be interpreted: “249 billion kWh
of electricity were used in buildings that use electricity for cooking.” (It should NOT be
interpreted as the consumption of electricity specifically for cooking.)
Refrigeration Equipment—In the 2003 CBECS, the refrigeration questions were changed to
include residential-type units and vending machines. As a consequence, the “Any Refrigeration”
line includes many more buildings than the line in the 1999 CBECS “Commercial Refrigeration
Equipment” row category labeled “Any Equipment.” So, the second line in the 2003 table,
“Commercial Refrigeration” has been specified to be comparable to the 1999 “Any Equipment”
row; it includes only walk-in units and refrigerated cases or cabinets.
Office Equipment—Within this row category, the line “With Flat Screen Monitors” may need
some clarification. This line represents the number of buildings in which at least one of their
computers has a flat screen (LCD) monitor. For example, in Table B1, the first two lines of this
row category should be interpreted as: “There are about 3,081,000 buildings that have at least
one computer; there are about 877,000 buildings for which at least one of the computers in the
building has a flat screen monitor.”
Equipment Usage Reduced When Building Not In Full Use—The figure in the "Office
Equipment" line of this row category is much higher than it was in the 1999 CBECS; this is not
due to drastic increases in behavior, but instead to differences between the two surveys. In 1999,
the question about whether computers and office equipment were turned off when the building
was closed was asked only if there were 20 or more computers in the building. In 2003, it was
asked of every building with any computers.

See "Guide to the Tables" or "Glossary" for further explanations of the terms used in this table. Both can be accessed from the CBECS
web site - http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs.
* Figures in this table do not include enclosed malls and strip malls. Mall buildings add an estimated 213 thousand buildings comprising
6.9 billion square feet. In the 1999 CBECS, malls represented 6.6 percent of total consumption.
a
The definition for one or more of these row items has changed and may not be directly comparable with past CBECS estimates. See
"Guide to the Tables" for discussion of the differences.
Q=Data withheld because the Relative Standard Error (RSE) was greater than 50 percent, or fewer than 20 buildings were sampled.
N=No responding cases in sample that use the particular energy source.
Notes: ● Site electricity is the amount of electricity delivered to commercial buildings. Primary electricity, which is not included in the "Total
of Major Fuels" category, is site electricity plus the conversion losses in the generation, transmission, and distribution processes. ●
Statistics for the "Energy End Uses" category represent total consumption in buildings that have the end use, not consumption specifically
for that particular end use. ● HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. ● Due to rounding, data may not sum to totals.

The definition for one or more of these row items has changed and may not be directly comparable with past CBECS estimates. See
"Guide to the Tables" for discussion of the differences.
Q=Data withheld because the Relative Standard Error (RSE) was greater than 50 percent, or fewer than 20 buildings were sampled.
N=No responding cases in sample.
Notes: ● Statistics for the "Energy End Uses" category represent total consumption in buildings that have the end use, not consumption
specifically for that particular end use. ● HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. ● Due to rounding, data may not sum to totals.

The definition for one or more of these row items has changed and may not be directly comparable with past CBECS estimates. See
"Guide to the Tables" for discussion of the differences.
Q=Data withheld because the Relative Standard Error (RSE) was greater than 50 percent, or fewer than 20 buildings were sampled.
N=No responding cases in sample.
Notes: ● Statistics for the "Energy End Uses" category represent total consumption in buildings that have the end use, not consumption
specifically for that particular end use. ● HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. ● Due to rounding, data may not sum to
totals.

Q=Data withheld because the Relative Standard Error (RSE) was greater than 50 percent, or fewer than 20 buildings were sampled.
N=No responding cases in sample.
Notes: ● Statistics for the "Energy End Uses" category represent total consumption in buildings that have the end use, not consumption
specifically for that particular end use. ● HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. ● Due to rounding, data may not sum to totals.

Notes: ● Site electricity is the amount of electricity delivered to commercial buildings. Primary electricity, which is not included in the "Total
of Major Fuels" category, is site electricity plus the conversion losses in the generation, transmission, and distribution processes. ● Statistics
for the "Energy End Uses" category represent total consumption in buildings that have the end use, not consumption specifically for that
particular end use. ● HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. ● Due to rounding, data may not sum to totals.

The definition for one or more of these row items has changed and may not be directly comparable with past CBECS estimates. See
"Guide to the Tables" for discussion of the differences.
Q=Data withheld because the Relative Standard Error (RSE) was greater than 50 percent, or fewer than 20 buildings were sampled.
N=No responding cases in sample that use electricity.
Notes: ● Statistics for the "Energy End Uses" category represent total consumption in buildings that have the end use, not consumption
specifically for that particular end use. ● HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. ● Due to rounding, data may not sum to totals.

See "Guide to the Tables" or "Glossary" for further explanations of the terms used in this table. Both can be accessed from the CBECS
web site - http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cbecs.
* Figures in this table do not include enclosed malls and strip malls. Mall buildings add an estimated 213 thousand buildings comprising
6.9 billion square feet. In the 1999 CBECS, malls represented 9.7 percent of total electricity consumption.
a
The definition for one or more of these row items has changed and may not be directly comparable with past CBECS estimates. See
"Guide to the Tables" for discussion of the differences.
Q=Data withheld because the Relative Standard Error (RSE) was greater than 50 percent, or fewer than 20 buildings were sampled.
N=No responding cases in sample that use electricity.
Notes: ● Statistics for the "Energy End Uses" category represent total consumption in buildings that have the end use, not consumption
specifically for that particular end use. ● HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. ● Due to rounding, data may not sum to
totals.
