“…There are several problems inherent in using such data. For one, market research surveys typically deal with household usage instead of per product usage, but per product usage is required whenever the household owns multiple units [2,3]. Another problem is that market research surveys do not inquire about the states of products during the periods they are not used.…”

“…This view has changed as the stock of these products increased, and as research revealed higher than expected energy consumption levels for many of these devices. Recent U.S. research has focused on the electricity use of specific consumer electronics products (Rosen & Meier 1999a;Rosen & Meier 1999b;. Studies in Europe (Siderius 1995;Meyer & Schaltegger AG 1999;Sidler 2000), Australia (Harrington 2000), New Zealand (EECA 1999) and Japan (Nakagami et al 1997) have produced similar results.…”

Energy Efficiency in Household Appliances and Lighting

The major consumer electronics in U.S. homes accounted for over 10% of U.S. residential electricity consumption in 1999, which is comparable to the electricity consumed by refrigerators or lighting. We attribute 3.6% to video products, 3.3% to home office equipment, and 1.8% to audio products. Televisions use more energy than any other single product category, but computer energy use now ranks second and is likely to continue growing. In all, consumer electronics consumed 110 TWh in the U.S. in 1999, over 60% of which was consumed while the products were not in use.

This analysis was prepared for the National Commission on Energy Policy (NCEP). It uses an analytical approach that is similar in concept to that used by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to set standard levels. It relies on much less data and uses more simplified assumptions than the detailed and complex formulations used in DOE's standard-setting process. The results of this analysis should thus be viewed as a first approximation of the impacts that would actually be achieved by new standards. Note: All monetary values in this report are in 2002 dollars. 2. Products Considered Within each of the key end uses, we considered equipment standards for specific products, as shown in Table 1. For some of the products listed, we determined that additional standards would not be cost-effective on a national-average basis. These products are listed later. Products that we did not consider include those listed below. The reasons for not considering them were one or more of the following: (1) a more stringent standard is probably not cost-effective (e.g., clothes dryers); (2) the impact of a new standard would probably be low because the market for the product is small and shrinking (e.g., boilers); and (3) lack of adequate data. We also did not consider plumbing fixtures that can reduce hot water consumption in the residential and commercial sectors.
