Impact evaluation of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District's shade tree program. Final report

The authors present results for annual cooling energy, average capacity for the building's peak cooling day, and annual average heating energy for 3 scenarios: no shade, existing shade from trees and adjacent building, and existing plus program tree shade. Effects of program trees on energy use were calculated as the difference between the last two scenarios. (p.1)
