全球国内部门对能源使用的贡献相当显著，占发达国家一次能源消费总量的20%-40%。目前的预测表明，由于世界人口的显著增长、技术的不断发展、对建筑服务的需求不断增长和舒适度的提高，国内能源消费将稳步增长。在这方面，准确理解和解读国内部门的能源消费数据对于在全球范围内进一步修订能源政策至关重要。在本文的范围内，概述了从1970年到现在影响英国家庭能源消费的趋势和一些关键驱动因素。按燃料类型和最终用途划分的能源消耗量、近年来平均家庭燃气和电力使用量、每户和人均能源消耗量均以可比较的方式列出。
Global contribution from domestic sector towards energy use is quite remarkable, accounting for 20–40% of total primary energy consumption in developed countries. Current predictions indicate that the domestic energy consumption will steadily increase as a consequence of notable growth in world population, everlasting technological developments, growing demand for building services and rising comfort levels. In this respect, an accurate understanding and interpretation of energy consumption data in domestic sector is of vital importance for further amendments in energy policies at the global scale. Within the scope of this paper, an overview of the trends and some key drivers that have affected domestic energy consumption in the UK from 1970 to present is presented. Energy consumption by fuel type and end use, average domestic gas and electricity use in recent years, energy consumption per household and per person are illustrated in a comparable way.
