Purpose and rationale for this study is based case study research within the first smart metering pilot project in Latvia „Promotion of energy efficiency in households, using smart technologies”. This study outlines the general principles for the development of the methodology for assessing changes in household electricity consumption and calculation of CO2 emissions. The methodology has been established on several successive steps: 1) regression analysis based on variable multi criteria analyses approach to provide overall changes in residential electricity consumption, 2) normalization of electricity consumption data, 3) assessment of changes in electricity consumption, 4) assessment of electricity consumption reduction and 5) calculation of CO2 emissions.
