Abstract	This tape presents data from the 1979-1980 Nonresidential Buildings Energy Consumption Survey. The NBECS have been designed by the Energy Information Administration to provide information concerning consumption in the nonresidential sector. The Public Use Tape presents the survey data file, an SPSS file program, a Table Producing Language (TPL) file program, a TPL codebook and a COBOL file used to produce the survey data file of annual consumption and expenditures data. The survey data file contains basic data concerning building characteristics from the interview questionnaire and annualized (October 1979 - January 1980) fuel consumption and expenditures derived from the records of the building's fuel suppliers. Also included are weather variables, and a weighting variable. The file contains 6,222 sample buildings from the contiguous U.S. These buildings represent 4.0 million weighted buildings. The smallest unit of analysis is the individual building. However, the finest geographic identification available for each building is Census region. The tape documentation provides job control language for unloading the tape, a discussion of confidentiality provisions, and complete file descriptions. A companion report for this documentation, Nonresidential Buildings Energy Consumption Survey Part 2: Steam, Fuel Oil, LPG and All Fuels (available from the Energy Information Administration), provides important information concerning the data and the survey. It also presents data from the survey data file.
