The first chart bellow shows how energy is used in average Australian household. The second chart shows the greenhouse gas emissions which result from this energy use.
The pie charts illustrate the proportions of
energy
used by households and
gas
emissions
produced by greenhouses using the
energy
.
Overall
, Australian households utilise most of their
energy
both on heating and water heating which results in the biggest percentage of
gas
emissions
. Looking into details, almost half of heating is used by Australian households, which is the highest followed by water heating with a quarter.
However
, the figure for water heating spends less
energy
than heating, it significantly contributes most of the greenhouse
emissions
at 32%,
while
heating causes only 15%.
In contrast
, both lighting and cooling utilise the least
energy
which is used, just only 4% and 2% respectively. They
also
produce under ten of
gas
emissions
, with 8% for lighting and only 3% for cooling.
Nevertheless
, the figure for other appliances even used just 15 %, but
then
it causes more than double
gas
emissions
, with 28%.
