I literally have no idea how much energy my apartment uses. This is like not knowing whether your car gets 10mpg or 50mpg. Feels like a big gap in infrastructure situation awareness.
Unlike a car which is 2 big loads (motive power and air conditioning), and one small (electrical), home is about a dozen larger loads and several dozen smaller ones

You asked about whole building load, not disaggregation :) Disaggregation is harder - can be (maybe) done with Sense, Bidgely, or DIY with CTs (current transformers) on the breakers

I actually meant while building load and it’s *sensitivity* to various operating conditions like “doing laundry while watching tv in winter with heat on while chili is stewing on stove”. The daily/weekly/seasonal variability in home use is much higher than auto.
