This dataset includes:</p><p> - Building survey data for the 20 homes.</p><p> - Sensor measurements made before the Smart Home equipment was installed.</p><p> - Sensor measurements made after the Smart Home equipment was installed.</p><p> - Climate data recorded at a nearby weather station.</p><p>---<br> This work has been carried out as part of the REFIT project (‘Personalised Retrofit Decision Support Tools for UK Homes using Smart Home Technology’, Grant Reference EP/K002457/1). REFIT is a consortium of three universities - Loughborough, Strathclyde and East Anglia - and ten industry stakeholders funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) under the Transforming Energy Demand in Buildings through Digital Innovation (BuildTEDDI) funding programme.
