“…This finding is consistent with a large number of previous studies [6,14,15,17,18,22,[26][27][28][30][31][32][33][36][37][38][39]41,42] and may be due to an increased ownership and use of electrical appliances and an ability to easily pay electricity bills. Households with a higher income may also purchase new and high end appliances.…”

“…In relation to the socio-economic factors, the review identified that more occupants [11,13,14,18,19,22,23,25,27,29-31,33,36-38, 41,43,44], the presence of teenagers [12,30,33,45], increased household income [6,14,17,18,22,[26][27][28]30,31,33,37,38,41,42,[44][45][46] and increased disposable income [3,19,23,25,36] lead to a significant increase (positive effect) in domestic electricity consumption. The number of studies that confirmed a positive effect was higher (at least three studies more) than the number indicating a significant negative or non-significant effect.…”

“…The review also identified that dwellings with an electric space heating system [11][12][13][14]23,24,34,36], airconditioning [13,18,29,41,43,46] or electric water heating system [9,11,13,23,29,34,43] had greater electricity demand. The dwelling type (level of detachment) was also seen to have an significant effect on the electricity consumption of domestic buildings Fig.…”

a b s t r a c tThis paper provides an analysis of the socio-economic and dwelling factors contributing to high electrical energy demand in UK domestic buildings. The socio-economic, dwelling and electricity consumption data were collected during a large-scale, city-wide survey, carried out in Leicester, UK, in 2009-2010. Annual electrical energy demand was estimated for 315 dwellings and an odds ratio analysis used to identify the socio-economic and dwelling factors that led to high electricity consumption. The effects of a number of socio-economic and dwelling factors which have not previously been studied for the UK domestic sector are included. Thus, for the first time, presence of teenagers, having electric space heating as the primary form of heating, portable electric heating and electric water heating were identified as significant drivers of high electricity demand in UK homes. The employment status and education level of the Household Representative Person, the number of floors in a dwelling, presence of fixed electric heating, and the proportion of low-energy lighting were shown to have no effect on high electricity consumption in UK homes. Given the impetus to reduce electricity consumption and CO 2 emissions from the domestic sector, these observations can help shape energy saving campaigns and future energy policy.

“…Hondro yiannis and Dergiades and Tsoulfidis used the ARDL approach to co-integration to separately estimate the residential demand for electricity in Australia and the United States. Holtedahl and Joutz and Halvorsen and Larsenmade made use of co-integration and error correction procedures to estimate residential electricity elasticity of Tiwan and Norwegian, respectively [20]. Besides, the co-integration technique, other models, such as partial-adjustment model (Blazquez et al,), bivariate del (Yoo et al,), structural time series model (Dilaever and Hunt), are also introduced in studies.…”

“…Price elasticities are not necessarily constant and can vary over time Halvorsen and Larsen, 2001), over income groups (Rehdanz, 2005;Reiss and White, 2005), across household sizes (Damsgaard, 2003), and also depending on whether prices are increasing or decreasing (Haas and Schipper, 1998). Hence, one might expect significant differences in demand response to price across different consumer groups.…”

The International Energy Agency (IEA), an autonomous agency, was established in November 1974. Its primary mandate was -and is -two-fold: to promote energy security amongst its member countries through collective response to physical disruptions in oil supply, and provide authoritative research and analysis on ways to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy for its 28 member countries and beyond. The IEA carries out a comprehensive programme of energy co-operation among its member countries, each of which is obliged to hold oil stocks equivalent to 90 days of its net imports. The Agency's aims include the following objectives: n Secure member countries' access to reliable and ample supplies of all forms of energy; in particular, through maintaining effective emergency response capabilities in case of oil supply disruptions. n Promote sustainable energy policies that spur economic growth and environmental protection in a global context -particularly in terms of reducing greenhouse-gas emissions that contribute to climate change. n Improve transparency of international markets through collection and analysis of energy data. n Support global collaboration on energy technology to secure future energy supplies and mitigate their environmental impact, including through improved energy efficiency and development and deployment of low-carbon technologies. n Find solutions to global energy challenges through engagement and dialogue with non-member countries, industry, international organisations and other stakeholders.
