A generalised model of electrical energy demand from small household appliances (2016)
Journal Article
Sancho-Tomás, A., Sumner, M., & Robinson, D. (2017). A generalised model of electrical energy demand from small household appliances. Energy and Buildings, 135, 350-366. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2016.10.044

Accurate forecasting of residential energy loads is highly influenced by the use of electrical appliances, which not only affect electrical energy use but also internal heat gains, which in turn affects thermal energy use. It is therefore important t... Read More about A generalised model of electrical energy demand from small household appliances.
