The chart illustrates the average energy consumption by Australian households. Also, the second chart explains greenhouse gas emissions produced by this energy use.
The most energy consumed by Australians is related to heating, which is about 42%, and emission less greenhouse gas than other energies around 15%. On the other hand, water heating emissions more greenhouse gas than other energies. The energy use is around 30% and the emission of greenhouse gas is 32%. While, other energies like refrigeration and lighting emissions half the energy they use. (refrigeration 14% energy use to 7% greenhouse gas emission, lighting 8% to 4%). But cooling gas emissions are a little more like 3%, while energy use is around 2%.
Overall, the highest energy consumption is in heating and the least in cooling. Moreover, the highest amount of greenhouse gas is emitted as a result of using water heating and the lowest amount is because of cooling.
