Energy Consumption Pattern

With rapid growth in economy, energy consumption in developing countries like India is increasing at a fast rate primarily due to increase in demand in energy intensive sectors. The adverse impacts on the environment due to high energy demand are also becoming evident. Energy consumption in household sector can be defined as the energy consumed in homes to meet the needs of the residents themselves. To understand the residential energy consumption pattern it is important to identify the drivers of energy use in developing India. The basic drivers are population growth, household size, fuel and technology, income level and life style changes. Energy and climate change related concern of the Indian economy include the growing gap between demand and supply of energy, and environmental externalities associated with energy use. In this paper the drivers of energy consumption and emission are identified and the Indian household energy consumption pattern is analyzed.

Energy Consumption Pattern

This study examined household energy consumption pattern in Pakistan using Linear Approximate Almost Ideal Demand System (LA-AIDS). Price and expenditure elasticities estimated for the energy demand using a household income and expenditure data of the year 2011-12. The energy consumption expenditure pattern of rural and urban region is different. The study reveals that electricity is the most important and highly consumable source of energy for the household living in the country. Electricity and natural gas are the highly consumed fuel in the urban areas, whereas, electricity and firewood in the rural areas. The energy consumption expenditure is inelastic with respect to changes in income except for firewood for urban region. All the estimated expenditure elasticities of the energy types were found less than one indicating that energy consumption is the necessity for the household

Energy Efficiency Improvement

Much of the world's energy is currently produced and consumed in ways that could not be sustained if technology were to remain constant and if overall quantities were to increase substantially. The objective of the paper is to examine the household energy consumption of the case study area. The paper also explores significant factors affecting energy saving measures at household level. A household questionnaire survey was conducted to identify energy consumption pattern and energy efficient measures. The study stabilized that, reducing the consumption of individual household energy by using energy efficient appliances and equipment is an obvious step for energy efficiency improvement. Results of the analysis revealed that electricity is predominately used for lighting and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) for cooking, the use of energy efficient lighting appliances increasing significantly. Also there is a strong relationship of monthly energy cost with number of family, occupied space and income. Based on the aforementioned result, it is clearly concluded that, in order to optimize energy use, appropriate energy efficient appliances are to be integrated into household level.
