Data were collected and is being analyzed on residential energy use from Canada, Japan, UK, West Germany, France, Italy, and Sweden. Preliminary inspection indicates that much of the variation of energy use depends on structural or lifestyle factors such as incomes, house or appliance size, hot water, and indoor temperature habits. There appears to exist a wide range of energy intensities within each narrow end use category; each of these ranges suggests that there are interesting prospects for energy conservation in any one country based on technologies or ideas common elsewhere.
