Winter residential electricity consumption expected to increase from last winter">Winter residential electricity consumption expected to increase from last winter

(Mon, 12 Dec 2016) EIA’s <em>Short-Term Energy Outlook</em> (STEO) projects that the average residential customer will consume 4% more electricity over December through March compared with the same period last winter. However, this forecast is highly dependent on winter temperatures. If temperatures are warmer than expected, as they have been the past two months, average electricity use could be slightly below that of the previous winter.
