“…After considering the various computation methods, our choice for the estimation of household energy consumption based on non-technical factors is an artificial neural network based inference system, the support for which is confirmed by Aydinalp-Koksal and Ugursal [5], according to whom, such models are suitable for considering technical parameters, as well as, social and economic conditions.…”

“…The simultaneous use of two sources of statistics might appear strange, but there are plenty of examples in the international literature, for similar reasons, as we have listed. Also, on the topic of energy consumption, Aydinalp Koksal and Ugursal [5] are developing their own database based on two sets of statistics in an examination of the energy consumption of Canadian households.…”

“…Because of that, the demonstrative settlements are parceled (divided) into eight "Real Urban Areas" with similar buildings on each particular parcel; ( The value of fuel consumption depends on heating insulation of the building. Energy consumption in the residential sector can be determined according to various methods shown in an available literature [39]. Therefore, the "Heat Load" depends on heating insulation of the building.…”

Energy, 2008, 33 (12) Dear Prof. Lior, We are grateful to referees for their suggestions. According to referees' comments, we have modified our paper "Systematic Approach to Natural Gas Usage for Domestic Heating in Urban Areas"-EGY-D-08-00110R1. We are returning our rewritten manuscript. This paper has not been published previously, it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, and if accepted it will not be published elsewhere in substantially the same form, in English or in any other language, without the written consent of the Publisher. Also, don't forget we want to attach Electronic annex refer to our work -MS Excel file (annex DB ver3). We hope that English expression in our paper is now improved. Abstract: Natural gas can be used for satisfying population needs for heating, either directly by bringing the gas to the dwellings through the gas distribution system and combusting it in the domestic boiler (gas distribution system-G), or indirectly by combusting the natural gas in the heating plant and distributing the heat energy to the dwellings through the district heating system (district heating system-DH). The selection of a certain type of heating system is made according to the disposition of buildings in the area, their number, size, insulation quality, etc. Based on these characteristics, calculations of investments and exploitation costs have been made for both heating systems and a comparison has been made for all of the 96 presented cases. Almost each type of real settlement can be represented by one of the types of the conditional urban area which are introduced in the paper. The main goal of this paper is to establish a general model to achieve coordinated development of centralized energy supply systems fueled by natural gas, based on defined and accepted criteria. A structure analysis of centralized systems for energy supply has been done with accent on their pipelines.Keywords: Natural Gas, Settlement, Gas Distribution, District Heating, Urbanism

“…The residential sector consumes approximately 30% of global primary energy [2]. Households accounted for 25 % of total energy use in the EU27 in 2007 [3], for 17% in 2003 in Canada [4], and for 33% in Spain [6]. In the UK, the residential sector accounted for 27% energy-related CO 2 emissions [5] and for 26.5% in Ireland [7].…”
