Dear Reader,
With a limited economic recovery in 2011, the population on Long Island remains flat with no growth over the last few years.Nevertheless, energy use here on Long Island continues to trend upward. LIPA aggressively stays ahead of this curve byproviding all of our customers with an array of energy efficiency and renewable technology programs to assist them in loweringtheir electric use. Since LIPA was created, it has been encouraging the use of ENERGY STAR® appliances and energy efficiency.LIPA’s energy efficiency programs have reduced the growth of energy usage here on Long Island by 26% compared to what it wouldhave been without these programs.
Newly built and renovated homes with larger footprints, increased lighting, rising usage of office equipment and electronic devices,and more homes with window(s) or central air conditioning, swimming pools, and high definition TVs are major contributors tothe growing demand for electricity. These factors have helped to increase residential electric usage per household on Long Islandsince 1998 by 1,653 kilowatt hours (kWh) or enough electricity to power an average home for 66 days. LIPA remains focused onthis challenge as we continue to strategically and wisely plan to meet the electric needs of our customers today and in the future.
LIPA has become a national leader in advancing clean, renewable and efficient energy. LIPA’s efficiency programs provide ourresidential and commercial customers with the tools needed to help them incorporate energy efficient practices and technologies.The goal of LIPA’s Efficiency Long Island is to help our customers lower their energy usage and reduce our peak demand by520 megawatts (MW) by 2018, deferring the need to build a new generating plant and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by1.5 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) between 2009 and 2018.
Building upon its nationally renowned solar and wind programs, in November 2011, LIPA completed and commissioned its firstutility-scale solar project; a 32 megawatt (MW) solar farm on the property of Brookhaven National Laboratory. This solar farm isone of the largest in the Country and will bring environmental and economic benefits for years to come. LIPA’s second utility-scalesolar project, The Eastern Long Island Solar Carport Project will provide over 60,000 solar modules to be installed at parkinglots across Suffolk County owned property providing up to 17 MW of solar power.
Together, these regionally and nationally significant projects increase LIPA’s renewable portfolio, advance the utility solar market,and create hundreds of local and national jobs as they provide power to sustain more than 6,500 households and reduce carbondioxide emissions by more than 45,300 tons.
In September, 2011, LIPA in partnership with the Nassau and Suffolk Planning Commissions launched a new Long Island UnifiedSolar Permitting Initiative (LIUSPI). All 10 Towns and six villages in Suffolk County have already agreed to adopt this newunified solar permitting process into their codes. This initiative continues to gain momentum in Nassau County too. This newpermitting process, which will cover more than 80% of residential solar systems, will reduce costs, save time, and improve publicsafety for Long Islanders wishing to install solar systems.
LIPA has existing home programs to aid residential customers in becoming more energy efficient. The Cool Homes program isdesigned to promote quality installations of ENERGY STAR central air conditioning (CAC) and heat pumps with higher thanstandard models Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratios (SEER).
To help ensure new homes being built on Long Island are as energy efficient as possible, in 2004 LIPA launched the New YorkENERGY STAR Labeled Homes Program. Through LIPA’s efforts, all 13 towns on Long Island have now adopted the ENERGYSTAR standards for construction of new homes.
For our business customers, LIPA’s Commercial Efficiency Program (CEP) provides free audits and rebates for measures suchas lighting, air conditioning, cool roofs, refrigeration, air compressors and controls for both existing buildings and newconstruction. Maximizing energy efficiencies in building design and construction can save our customers thousands of dollarsin annual energy costs.
LIPA continues to offer the Household Assistance Rate (HAR) Program to assist eligible low- income residential customersreduce their bills by 1.9%. In addition, the Residential Energy Affordability Partnership (REAP) Program provides qualifyingcustomers educational tips as well as free installation of energy-efficient air sealing, insulation, HVAC repair, lighting and otherenergy-saving measures.
At LIPA, we are working every day to implement proven technologies and develop innovative ideas through our Energy Planprocess, Efficiency Long Island Initiative, Solar Pioneer and Entrepreneur Program and Research and Development Program.Through these programs we strive to assist our customers use electricity more efficiently and to ensure that we meet the electricsupply needs of Long Island well into the future.
Sincerely,
Michael Hervey, Chief Operating OfficerLong Island Power Authority
FOREWORD
We are pleased to present the 2011 edition of the LIPA Long Island Population Survey for
Nassau and Suffolk counties and the Rockaway Peninsula of Queens County. Providing
the Population Survey is another way we continue to work to serve our community better.
Complementary copies are distributed throughout the region for use by governments, businesses
and the academic community to help them plan for Long Island’s future. Electronic versions
of the 1998 through 2011 Surveys are available on our Web site at www.lipower.org.
Our current Survey contains estimates for Jan. 1, 2011 based on utility records for calendar
year ending 2010. In addition to the current data, the Survey contains Jan 1, 2010 estimates as
well as data from the April 2010, April 2000 and April 1990 Federal Censuses for both short-
and long-term comparisons in each town.
We acknowledge the assistance of the staff of Nassau County Planning and the Suffolk County
Planning Board. As in past years, the demographics shared with us regarding the Nassau-
Suffolk region are once again much appreciated.
We express our appreciation to the Villages of Freeport, Rockville Centre and Greenport plus
Fishers Island Electric Corporation for supplying their electric meter data. We would also like
to thank the many people who provided us with on-site counts of group quarters residents. This
info helps us provide a more complete estimate of Long Island’s population.
METHODOLOGY
The annual population estimates are derived from U.S. 2010 Census data and utility records of
active residential electric meters. For each of the approximately 300 communities in Nassau
and Suffolk, plus the Rockaways in Queens, the number of persons per household is determined
based on the most recent decennial census in April 2010. Also, the relationship between
households and residential electric meters was established to coincide with the 2010 Census
data. Utilizing changes in meter counts between April 2010 and January 1, 2011, and household
factors calibrated to the 2010 Census, a base population is estimated. Lastly, another segment
of the population is taken into consideration: persons in group quarters. Examples of group
quarters are certain health facilities, jails and college dormitories. Establishments that have
substantial group accommodations are contacted each year to ensure a more accurate count of
this segment of the population. This data is then added to the estimated base population for each
community. The community totals are then summed to arrive at town and county totals. The
population data shown in this report represents year-round residents only and do not reflect
seasonal variations that occur, especially on Suffolk’s East End.

22,000 more than Nassau’s 55,748. The 1920 Census was the first to place Nassau County
ahead of Suffolk in population when Nassau reported a census population of 126,402 to
Suffolk’s 110,134.
More than two decades later - during World War II - residential construction, except for military
housing, came to a virtual standstill. During this period in history there were sizable shifts in
population. The shifts were largely due to the many people who had been mobilized into the
Armed Forces. There was a substantial influx of workers seeking to participate in the growing
defense industry workforce in the Nassau-Suffolk area. Firms such as Fairchild, Grumman,
Republic, and Sperry Gyroscope flourished and would influence the region’s economy for
decades.
The end of the war brought demobilization and with it the return of young men and women to
begin new families. To their dismay, they found a housing shortage. It led to the post-war
construction boom, which began in the fall of 1946. On May 27, 1947, the Hempstead Town
Board amended its building code to permit cellar-less homes. The change resulted in the most
famous example of mass-home construction, the area in Nassau known as Levittown. Levittown
got its start with William Levitt’s construction firm building 10,101 homes between July 1,
1947 and December 31, 1949. Nassau County’s growth in the period 1940 to 1950 led the
nation. Other areas on Long Island also grew rapidly as demand for housing outstripped supply.
The region’s growth in the fifties was phenomenal. Between the years 1950 and 1960, the
region experienced its greatest population growth. In the decade between censuses, Nassau’s
population grew 93.3%, from 672,765 to 1,300,171. Suffolk grew from just 276,129 persons
to 666,784, a whopping 141.5% increase. Together, the population count soared higher by over
one million people. Housing units constructed in Nassau and Suffolk counties in the decade
accounted for 30% of all the homes built in New York State.
The following years (1960-1970) were the next highest decade of population growth. During
this period the Nassau-Suffolk area grew by 589,000 persons, a 29.9% increase. Just as the
decade of the fifties was Nassau’s peak growth era, the sixties belonged to Suffolk County.
Suffolk accounted for 78% of the area’s growth between 1960 and 1970.
The 1970 to 1980 time span was a period of change. Suffolk’s population counts continued to
climb but Nassau experienced widespread population losses totaling 107,257 persons. Despite
this, there was a net gain of 49,944 persons in the bi-county region for the decade.
Diminished population growth continued between the 1980 and 1990 censuses. Suffolk’s
population gains barely offset Nassau’s losses as the overall change in population for the region
netted a gain of just 4,070 persons.
The decade between 1990 and 2000 brought renewed growth to both counties. Nassau grew by
3.7% and Suffolk by 7.3%. For Nassau, this growth was the first experienced in two decades,
while Suffolk more than doubled the growth realized between 1980 and 1990. Also during this
decade, Suffolk’s population exceeded Nassau’s population, for the first time since the 1920
census.

THE AREA
Long Island is the largest island adjoining the continental United States, extending
approximately 118 miles east-northeast from the mouth of the Hudson River. It is separated
from the mainland on the north by the Long Island Sound and bounded by the Atlantic Ocean
on the south and east. Twenty miles at its widest point, Long Island is composed of low plateaus
on the north, longitudinal ridges of glacial moraine through the central parts of the island, and
gently sloping plains to the south. The East End of the island is made up of two peninsular forks.
The North Fork, terminating at Orient Point, is approximately 28 miles long. Plum Island and
Fishers Island lie northeast of Orient Point. The South Fork, terminating at Montauk Point, is
about 44 miles in length. Peconic and Gardiners Bays separate the two forks. Shelter Island
lies between Peconic Bay and Gardiners Bay and Gardiners Island is located in Gardiners Bay.
Totaling 1,377 square miles of land area, Long Island is divided into four counties: Kings
(Brooklyn), Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk. Suffolk is the easternmost and by far the largest of
the four, covering an expanse of 911 square miles. Following Suffolk is Nassau with 287 square
miles, Queens County with 109, and Kings with 70 square miles, the westernmost County.
Kings and Queens Counties are synonymous with the Boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens, which
are within the jurisdiction of New York City.
Nassau and Suffolk County each has its share of pleasurable amenities that make Long Island
such a desirable area to live, work and play. With 1,180 miles of shoreline, both counties have
numerous beaches and other water sports recreational facilities which attract much tourism.
This is particularly true of Suffolk’s eastern towns. Tourism and the influx of seasonal residents
on the East End have a dramatic effect on both the population and the economy.
A BRIEF LOOK BACK
Legislation creating the independent County of Nassau was passed by the State Legislature and
then signed by Governor Frank Black on April 28, 1898. It provided that Nassau be officially
created on January 1, 1899, when western Queens County became part of New York City. The
Towns of North Hempstead, Hempstead and Oyster Bay, including what would later become
the Cities of Long Beach and Glen Cove, seceded from Queens County to form Nassau County.
The Horse’s Head Peninsula, which seceded from the Town of Oyster Bay on June 15, 1886,
was already part of Suffolk’s Town of Huntington. Today, it constitutes the northern half of the
Village of Lloyd Harbor. Remaining with Queens was the Rockaway Peninsula. The truck
ladder house of the Mineola Fire Department Hook and Ladder Company was selected as the
temporary home of the county at the Board of Supervisors’ first meeting. In 1900, Governor
Theodore Roosevelt (an Oyster Bay resident) laid the cornerstone of the first Nassau
Courthouse, now known as the “Old Courthouse.” The Nassau County Seal, with its golden lion
of Flanders, bestriding a field of azure, encircled by seven gold bars or billets, is an adaptation
of the Duchy of Nassau coat of arms.
Suffolk, named for an English County, was established on November 1, 1683 as one of the
twelve original counties of New York State. Prior to this it was known as East Riding in the
Province of Yorkshire. In 1900, the U.S. Census placed Suffolk’s population at 77,582, almost
iii
ROCKAWAY PENINSULA(www.ci.nyc.ny.us)
The Rockaway Peninsula is in Queens County and is part of New York City. This is the only
community in New York City served by LIPA. On January 1, 2011 our population estimate for
this area was 112,735 persons. This represents an 8% increase (8,400 people) since the last
census year of 2000. Between the 1990 and 2000 Census the growth here totaled 5,973 persons,
so the growth between the 2000 and 2010 Census was more than 40% higher than the growth
the Rockaway Peninsula experienced during the decade before.
GROUP QUARTERS
The component of the population that is not included in households is referred to as “group
quarters” in census reports. In Nassau-Suffolk, this sector totaled 47,494 in 1980 and 50,002
in 1990 census findings. The 2000 Census estimated total group quarters to equal 50,236. The
2010 Census estimated total group quarter’s population is 47,824. There has been a decrease
of about 5% in the group quarter population over the past 10 years. The State University of
New York (SUNY) at Stony Brook campus in Suffolk’s Brookhaven Town recorded 9,121
dormitory residents as per the 2010 Census study. It opened in 1963 and currently is the largest
single provider of group accommodations in the area.
Population counts at the various group quarters establishments also reflect the presence of staff
that may be in residence on the facility’s grounds. At all health care facilities, only resident staff
and patients admitted for intermediate or longer stays are counted. Health care facilities are
requested to exclude the numbers of short-term patients for the purposes of this report. Colleges
and Universities are requested to provide fall or winter (non-holiday) semester dormitory
resident counts.
vi
The most recent decade from 2000 to 2010 saw growth of only 3% between the two Counties.
Nassau population remained stable (0.4% growth in ten years) while Suffolk population grew
by approximately 73,000 people (5.1%) in ten years. The total population in Nassau-Suffolk
stood at 2,832,856 in April 2010. The Rockaway Peninsula also grew by 8.1% in that decade,
to 112,535.
NASSAU COUNTY (www.nassaucountyny.gov)
On January 1, 2011, the population estimate for Nassau was 1,337,556 persons with the town
of Hempstead being by far the biggest and contributing to about 56% of the Nassau population.
The Town of Hempstead’s population as of Jan 2011 was 758,668. The Town of North
Hempstead’s 2011 population was 225,717 while the Town of Oyster had a population of
292,872.
Nassau’s two cities, Glen Cove and Long Beach have a population of 26,970 and 33,329
respectively.
The population of Nassau County has remained steady with no growth over the past decade.
SUFFOLK COUNTY (www.co.suffolk.ny.us)
Our population estimate for Suffolk, on January 1, 2011, was 1,492,450 persons. The biggest
town is the town of Brookhaven with a total population of 486,568, or 32% of the County.
The four other western towns, - Huntington, Babylon, Islip, and Smithtown, account for just
under 60% of the population of Suffolk County with a combined total of 869,806. The town
of Islip is the second biggest town of Suffolk county, with a population of 335,301. The Town
of Babylon accounted for 213,565 of the total population and is the third biggest western
Suffolk town. The town of Huntington is the fourth biggest with a total population of 203,055.
The County’s five eastern towns - Riverhead, Southampton, Southold, East Hampton, and
Shelter Island accounted for about 9% of the total Suffolk County population. The combined
population of the five eastern Towns is estimated to be 136,076 persons as of January 1, 2011.
The town of Southampton has the largest population with a total of 56,800, whereas Shelter
Island has the smallest population with a total of 2,396. Riverhead is the second largest
eastern town contributing 33,455 to the total population. Southold and East Hampton have
about the same population with 21,965 and 21,460 respectively. The Town of Riverhead
experienced the largest percentage growth (21%) between 2000 and 2010, adding just over
5,800 people in 10 years.
v
HOUSEHOLD SIZE
Our January 1, 2011 estimate of average household size was 2.94 for the overall Nassau-Suffolk
area. This household size was based on the 2010 Census results at the community level, but has
been adjusted slightly to reflect different growth rates between communities since the January
1, 2010 estimate which was 2.93. Household size for the individual towns within Nassau and
Suffolk varies from a low of 2.12 for Shelter Island to a high of 3.03 for Hempstead. At the
community level, New Cassel (in Nassau County) has the highest population per household at
4.72 while Great Neck Plaza (also in Nassau County) has the lowest at 1.78.
In 1970, there were 65,696 single family households in the Nassau-Suffolk region. The 2010
total household number for Nassau-Suffolk is now close to 950,000.

NUMBER OF HOUSEHOLDS
Between 1980 and 1990, the number of Nassau-Suffolk households increased by 47,094 or
5.8%. The decade between 1990 and 2000 brought an increase of 7.0% or 59,931 households.
The 2010 over the 2000 Census increase is 35,807 households or about 4%.
Suffolk County leads Nassau County in the number of year-round households by a margin of
51,386. The number of year-round households in Nassau County is estimated to be 448,532,
compared to the 499,918 in Suffolk County. During the summer, Suffolk with its large inventory
of seasonal units and second homes experiences a large influx of visitors. At that time the
number of Suffolk households as well as its population increases dramatically especially on
the East End.

GEOGRAPHIC TERMINOLOGYCounty: A county is a municipal corporation, a subdivision of the state, created to perform state functions; a regional
government. All counties are divided into cities, towns and Indian reservations.
City: A city is a unique government entity with its own special charter. Cities are not sub-divided, except into neighborhoods
which are informal geographic areas.
Town: A town is a municipal corporation and encompasses all territory within the state except that within cities or Indian
reservations. Towns can be sub-divided into villages and hamlets.
Village: A village is a general purpose municipal corporation formed voluntarily by the residents of an area in one or more towns
to provide themselves with municipal services. The pattern of village organization is similar to those of a city. A village is
divided into neighborhoods, which are informal geographic areas.
Hamlet: A hamlet is an unincorporated area in one or more towns that is governed at-large by the town(s) it is in. A hamlet is
divided into neighborhoods, which are informal geographic areas.
Postal Zone: (City and Town) A postal zone "City” and "Town" is an administrative district established by the U.S. Postal
Service to deliver the mail. Postal zone "City" and "Town" may or may not conform to municipal or community borders.
Thus, postal zone location does not always determine city, village or hamlet location.
Designated Place: A designated place is a term derived from the term "Census Designated Place" or CDP in censuses beginning
with 1980. It replaced the designation (U) or unincorporated. A designated place is similar to that of a hamlet.

OYSTER BAY
CITY OF GLEN COVE
When William Levitt was completing the first large-scale, post
World War II suburban development on Long Island, the average
household used about 2,600 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity
annually. Looking back, it’s easy to understand why. By today’s
standards, the typical home of nearly 60 years ago was Spartan-
like in its use of “modern” technology.
Today, the average residential home on Long Island uses 9,973
kWh per year, which is a 284% increase over the average annual
use rate of the mid 1950s. In fact, over the last fourteen years
alone (1997 through 2010), residential electric use per household
on Long Island increased by 2,236 kWh, or 29% - enough
electricity to power the average home for over 80 days.
The significant causes of increased household electricity use on
Long Island are greater use of room and central air conditioning
units, home entertainment components – including large screen
and plasma TV’s, desktop and laptop personal computers and
printers, homes with two refrigerators, battery chargers for
cordless & mobile telephones, ceiling fans, fax & photocopy
machines, and hot tubs.
And another important recent trend causing an up-tick in electric
use is increasing housing unit size, which leads to additional
lighting and air conditioning use as well as more floor space for
additional appliances and home office equipment.
Unlike the basic Levitt house of more than half a century ago, our
homes today are bigger and they are jam packed with all sorts of
great technology that nearly all use electricity. And some use
electricity whether we have them on or not!
So, to manage our individual and collective use of electricity we
need to think more carefully about the products we purchase and
how we use them in our homes and offices.
Long Island Power Authority Summary:Recent Trends in Residential Electric Use
Growth in Residential ElectricConsumption Per Household in
LIPA Service Territory
Household SizeAverage home size is increasing by about 25 square feet per
year. The increase in floor space coincides with the average
increase of 2.25% per year in the number of homes using office
equipment. The increase in floor space over the fourteen years
ending in 2010 resulted in an average increase in household
lighting use of approximately 395 kWh per year (lower due to
increased compact fluorescent lighting usage), over 21% of the
total increase in electric use per household.
Air ConditioningThe percentage of LI households with Central Air Conditioning(CAC) has been increasing 1.2% a year, representing a growth ofabout 7,500 new homes and 4,300 retrofits of existing homes peryear. The CAC saturation rate has grown from 23.7% in 1997 to40% in 2010. During this time, the percentage saturation of LIhouseholds with one or more window, wall or stand alone airconditioning units has decreased from around 61% to 51%. Thesecustomers have an average of three electric air conditioning unitsper household. Customers with no air conditioning, has decreasedfrom around 17% in 1997 to around 9% in 2007. Ceiling fanshave replaced window, box and oscillating fans and are now intwo out of three Long Island homes, which average three ceilingfans per household (for those homes with ceiling fans). Attic andwhole house fans are in one out of three households. Increasedair conditioning use resulted in an average increase in LIhousehold electric use of 398 kWh per year, over 21% of the totalincrease in electric use per household.
• Whether it is selecting a single piece of energy-efficient
equipment or evaluating and designing an entire facility, LIPA
can help. Review the various program offerings at
www.lipower.org/efficiency and see which programs fit your
situation, then call us. We’d love to help you.
• For small- to mid-sized business owners, LIPA is offering the
Business Analyzer audit tool on the LIPA Web site. This tool
will allow small- to mid-sized commercial customers to
evaluate their energy usage and find options and alternatives
leading to reduced energy costs. LIPA also has a dedicated
business Call Center which is available to assist business
owners with all aspects of their business at 1-800-966-4818.
LIPA’s Web-based servicesLIPA continues to move toward interactive and productive Web
tools that provide customers a real-time evaluation tool to
compare energy equipment selections as well as energy usage
scenarios to maximize efficient use of electric energy.
LIPA as a Solution ProviderLIPA is committed to being a Solution Provider. What does this
mean? It means LIPA exists to help its customers get the most
out of the electricity they consume, and that they do it in the most
cost efficient way possible. LIPA succeeds as a non-profit,
municipal utility only if its customers succeed.
It is true that energy usage on a customer basis is rising, which is
not all bad. The benefits provided by these electro-technology
advancements offer real and noticeable value to customers. That
value comes with a cost, however. LIPA’s mission is to provide
tools and services that allow customers to minimize those costs,
while maximizing the value.
LIPA is positioned to provide information and consultative
services. If you have a question, are contemplating purchasing a
new home, opening a new business or expanding your current
business, call us at 1-800-692-2626. We believe we can help. �

LIPA’s Commercial Efficiency Program (CEP) can provide your company with substantial incentives for upgrading to more energy efficient equipment like highperformance lighting and air conditioning. This will reduce your energy use andcosts, with payback on many projects in a year or less.
Call 1-800-692-2626 or visit us online at www.lipower.org/commercial.
Be lighter. Be cooler. Be greener.
One other way to counter the additional electric load, due to
technology enhancements, is to incorporate other electric sources
in your energy portfolio. Many LIPA customers are now
installing solar panels on their rooftops. Solar is a
renewable/green technology that has become a more cost-
effective option for homeowners than it was in the past. In
addition to federal tax credits that are available, LIPA offers
rebates for solar installations. To find out more about “solar” call
LIPA’s energy-efficiency Infoline at 1-800-692-2626 or visit the
LIPA Web site at www.lipower.org/efficiency.
Other Recommended Ways to Counter the Growing Use of ElectricityIn analyzing the growing use of electricity per customer on
Long Island, a number of factors were identified as
representative of those growth patterns. If we know what’s
causing electrical usage (and in turn cost) to grow, customers
have a significant advantage in controlling those costs.
Let’s take computers as an example:
Do you use the energy management setting on your computer
system? Every system is equipped with an energy saving
option, but fewer than 10% of buyers use this feature. A
traditional desktop computer that is left on uses a minimum of
100 watts of electric power, representing a cost of
approximately 19¢ for every 10 hours (the average overnight
non-usage period) of operation. On a monthly basis, you could
be paying approximately $5.00 more than you need to if you
simply turned off the system when you went to bed. Does it
require additional attention? Most certainly! Is it worth the
effort? Only you can answer that question.
What if you’re a commercial customer? Depending upon the
size of your business, demand and demand charges could play a
significant role in your energy management objectives and
plans. Energy efficient alternatives provide an excellent starting
point for evaluating equipment. Through LIPA’s Commercial
Efficiency Program, www.lipower.org/commercial/efficiency
commercial customers can receive rebates and incentives based
upon selection of qualified energy-efficient equipment. LIPA is
ready, willing and able to provide consultative services to
commercial customers. Simply call our Energy Infoline at 1-
800-692-2626 and you will be connected to an energy specialist
who is uniquely qualified to assess your needs and provide
energy-efficient solutions.
What Programs Are Available Through LIPA?LIPA’s programs:
• These programs are designed to reward customers for making
energy wise decisions, and to encourage greater utilization of
energy-efficient technologies.
Understanding how this rapid growth occurred is important to
the development of LIPA’s comprehensive energy policy,
helping LIPA to better plan to meet the continuing needs of
Long Island and Long Islanders.
Knowing these facts also helps customers to better understand
how they use electricity. This understanding, in turn, enables
customers to conserve where possible, use electric energy
more efficiently and reduce annual electric energy costs in the
process.
Where Do We Go From Here?There is little doubt that customers have incorporated new
electronic devices into their lifestyles. Why? It’s very simple.
Consumers desire the ease of living, the comfort and
simplicity that are promised by these new technology
developments. What we really need to ask ourselves is, “Are
we really ready to understand and pay the costs for these
technology enhancements?”
LIPA continues to provide tools for customers, both residential
and commercial, to evaluate the impact of incorporating
technology into their lifestyles. One of the primary tools for the
residential customer is the online energy audit tool, The LIPA
Home Energy Audit. Easily accessed through LIPA’s Web site,
www.lipower.org/residential/efficiency you can click on Home
Energy Audit, enter your zip code and then proceed through the
audit. This tool provides not only an analysis of your current
energy usage and cost, but also recommends ways to improve
energy efficiency and reduce electric costs.
LIPA also provides incentives for buying a variety of equipment
representing the best energy choices. The ENERGY STAR® label
is the symbol to look for when shopping for energy-efficient
lighting products and appliances. Whether you’re looking for a
room air conditioner, a dishwasher, a refrigerator or lighting
products; checking the ENERGY STAR label is your
recommended first step to greater energy efficiency.
Why ENERGY STAR? It’s simple. Customers need a dependable,
unbiased way of comparing the performance of equipment. One
simple and primary criterion is to evaluate cost of operation. A
piece of electrical equipment, whether it’s a refrigerator or room
air conditioning unit, is evaluated against the amount of energy
required to perform the intended task. ENERGY STAR equipment
simply performs better at a lower cost.
Of course, customers still need to evaluate the various options,
features and benefits provided by the manufacturer. Once a
decision is made regarding the desired features, searching for an
ENERGY STAR qualified alternative is the easiest way to
identify the most energy-efficient appliances.
EntertainmentIn 1997 there were 2.5 television sets per LIPA household. In
2010 the average was 3.6. 99% of households in LI have at least
one television.
The increased penetration of large screen color televisions,
plasma TV’s, and an increase in the number of TV sets per
household resulted in an average increase in LI household
electric use of 196 kWh per year, almost 11% of the total
increase in electric use per household.
Personal ComputersPersonal computers are in over 80% of LIPA households in 2007,
compared to just under 50% in 1997. By 2010 the saturation
increased to 91%. On average there are 1.7 PCs in the four out of
five LI households that have a PC. The increased proliferation
of desktop and laptop PCs resulted in an average increase in LI
household electric use of 381 kWh per year, more than 20% of
the total increase in electric use per household.
RefrigeratorsThe average LI household owns 1.5 refrigerators and one in five
households owns a stand alone freezer. The increase in use per
household due to the higher percentage of housing units with
two or more refrigerators is 130 kWh, more than 7% of the total
