Abstract: A residential home characteristics inferring method and system that receives information about energy usage by an energy user, determines using a processor and the received information about energy usage average daily usage during a heating season and average daily usage during a shoulder season, and identifies the fuel type used for heating by the energy user using the determined average daily usage during the heating season and the determined average daily usage during the shoulder season.

Abstract: A thermostat set point estimation method and system that selects a plurality of candidate thermostat set points, determines for each of the plurality of candidate thermostat set points a predicted energy usage amount corresponding to the candidate thermostat set point, determines for each of the plurality of candidate thermostat set points an error value corresponding to the candidate thermostat set point using an actual energy usage amount and the predicted energy usage amount corresponding to the candidate thermostat set point, and identifies an estimated thermostat set point by selecting the candidate thermostat set point having the error value that is lowest from the plurality of candidate thermostat set points.
