Funding entity Fundación Ecológica y Desarrollo


The general objective of the project is to obtain a model that allows to calculate
the theoretical expenditure that a Spanish household should have in order to cover its electrical energy needs, according to its most representative parameters.
The theoretical electricity expenditure is defined as the necessary expenditure on electricity to satisfy the minimum needs of a household derived from all the electrical appliances. Excluded from the study are heating/cooling or DHW production, even if they are electrical, because they are included in a previously developed thermal expenditure model. Therefore, appliances such as washing machines, dishwashers, ovens, refrigerators, kitchens, televisions, computers,etc... would be considered.
