Abstract

This paper summarizes the main findings regarding rural household energy consumption from 5130 households covering 171 counties in Hebei province.The results of the survey document behaviors of rural residents: the most commonly used fuel for heating is coal product (including honeycomb briquette and coal briquette), representing 70% or more of all heating at an average of 1502.23 kWh per family; nearly 94.5% of all residents consume 101 to 5000 kWh of electricity per year.85.27% of all respondents concern electricity consumption but their opinions on electricity-saving appliances take on diversity.To change the high-pollution and low-efficiency way of energy use need economic-social development in rural region construction.
