This project sets out to focus on how residential owners can reduce overall energy use in their own home. Utilizing research to highlight high level categories of energy use and what drives that use, the focus is then shifted to using a Six Sigma approach via the DMAIC process to confirm potential root causes. Initial research drove the study towards electrical use specifically. By analyzing data, the project team was able to confirm major sources of electrical use and developed solutions to demonstrate how to effectively reduce that consumption. The study also highlights other recommendations that could be implemented to further reduce or control energy consumption and highlights overall benefits to the end user.
