Abstract:

For the first time in its 30-year history, the 2009 round of the Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS) relied on residential addresses from the U.S. Postal Service's Delivery Sequence File (DSF) to construct a significant portion of its housing unit frame. In this study we examine the coverage error of this frame and its relationship to the underlying non-response mechanism, their combined effects on the survey results, and potential remedies to remove or adjust for these effects.
