Abstract
► The behavioral component is frequently ignored in analyses of household energy use. ► We examine gas and electricity consumption for more than 300,000 households. ► Household composition is paramount for residential electricity demand. ► Gas consumption in dwellings constructed before 1980 is about 50 percent higher. ► The aging of the population will affect significantly the future demand for energy.
