Electricity consumption has a significant correlation with the occupancy rates. Plug-loads have an even stronger correlation with the occupancy rates. Occupants impact on the electricity consumption depends on the building function. We calculated a value of kW/person for a building with its area usage type and size. kW/person correlation allowed to predict electricity consumption in a test building.
