| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyzed household energy consumption using microdata from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' National Consumption Survey and the Ministry of the Environment's Household CO2 Survey. In addition, we conducted an original questionnaire survey to examine the impact of electricity prices on household energy consumption. Through a series of research activities, we were able to clarify the types of households in which areas, for what purposes, and to what extent they use energy. We also predicted how household energy demand would change in response to changes in energy prices and population composition.
