The results can be summarized as follows; 1) The households with floor area ranging 75 m-125 m account for more than 52% of the total amount investigated.

But annual electricity energy consumption in Changsha is 2.2 times of that in Luoyang. 3) The space heating thermal demand accounts for more than 70% of the total energy demand in heating district. 4) There is much adoption of the saving energy countermeasure in two cities.
