| Abstract | This study aimed to examine factors affecting energy consumption for home energy of households in Bangkok metropolitan area. Data was collected by surveying 1,150 households in 15 districts of the Bangkok metropolitan administration. The hypotheses were analyzed by multiple regression analysis. Results of the analysis revealed that there were three factors significantly having positive effects on the quantity of home energy use. These are: physical and structural, social and cultural, and economic factors. Suggestions for reducing home energy use include compact household size, home locations are in densely populated areas, home appliances used should be energy saving types, and renewable energy use in the city must be encouraged. |
