This workbook contains the detailed results of the regression analysis of water usage data from the 2015 household survey. The regression analysis was conducted on our behalf by Frontier Economics.
IPART conducted a survey of residential water, electricity and gas consumers in the Sydney metropolitan, Blue Mountains and Illawarra areas. We obtained matching consumption data from the utilities for 2,192 households.
