The first diagram compares the average household energy consumption in Australia while the second pie chart depicts the amount of Australian household greenhouse gas emission as the consequence of the first survey.
Overall, it clearly shows that heating, water heating and other appliances are dominant in terms of household energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission. Meanwhile, cooling and lighting contributions are not significant in Australian domestic energy use and its emission.
Looking first at the amount of energy consumption in Australia. Heating stands at the most energy used in Australia since its figure is 42%. Followed by water heating with the second rank at nearly a third of the pie chart. The rate of other appliances accounts for 15% which is roughly twice than that of refrigerations. The difference between lighting and cooling is minimal with the former being 4%, 2% higher than the later.
In terms of domestic greenhouse gas emissions. The proportion of water heating is 32% which registered the most emission in Australia and it doubles that of heating emissions. Refrigeration contributes 14% and compares to the figure for other appliances which was 28%. The percentage of cooling and lighting are 8% and 3% respectively.
