Households use energy directly for all kinds of applications, such as heating, lighting and driving. In addition, households use energy in an indirect way. This indirect use of energy concerns, for example, the energy used to manufacture consumption goods, to gather the raw materials for these goods, to transport these goods, or to provide services. Energy is used in each stage of the life cycle (from the gathering of the raw materials right up until the waste processing of the item) of an item of consumptive expenditure (a purchased good or a provided service) in a household. The total energy use (both direct and indirect) can be calculated for each item of consumptive expenditure. This energy use covers the energy required for production and disposal of the purchased item, summed up over its whole life cycle and is expressed in primary energy. If the life-cycle energy use for each purchased product is known, the total energy requirements for a complete domestic consumption package can be calculated. Thus, via the energy requirements of domestic consumption patterns, the total energy use in an economy - on both production and consumption - can be investigated. This approach enables investigations on the combined effect, on total energy use, of improvements in energy efficiency in the production sectors on the one hand, and shifts in consumption patterns on the other. Such studies can furnish possible clues for reducing total energy use in an economy.
