ABSTRACT

In this paper, relationship between energy consumption and the size of the building has been presented. Electricity and fuel gases as two essential energies in the world have also been investigated by considering that the relationship is linear. The energy waste of different buildings with different sizes has been surveyed. This can broaden people’s horizon in order to find the ways of reducing the amount of energy consuming which have significant effects on reducing energy crises. It is possible to conserve energy for future generations and increase total life cycle energy use and associated environmental effects.

Electricity consumption; gas consumption; simple linear regression.
