Unit consumption of air conditioning
- In 2022, air conditioning represented only 2.5% of the household electricity consumption in the EU. However, the average per-dwelling consumption for this end use is on the rise, increasing from 21 kWh/household in 2000 to 93 kWh/household in 2022, driven by the growing use of air conditioning appliances.
- This end-use is significant in Cyprus, Malta, Greece, Croatia and Italy (from 8% to 25% of household electricity consumption).
Consumption per dwelling for air conditioning
Note: The average consumption per dwelling is obtained by dividing the total consumption for air conditioning by the total number of dwellings, not only those with air conditioning.
