Be kind and provide some references.
I'm pretty certain that heavy industry is helluva big consumer.
Regarding home cooling and heating - I would expect that at least heating is primarily done via other means not electricity. Cooling may be a bigger problem, especially in the most developed countries.
In any case I agree with you that we need to make our housing more energy efficient. And there are a lot of ways to do it, once we realize that concrete bricks might be fast and cheap to produce but beyond that not quite the best option.
- maigret 16y agoI like to have heated discussions... Helps getting to the deepness of the topic :) I think I provided more link that most of the people contradicting me here. You are one the few providing links. Yes you're right: note than electricity is a subset of energy, so the part of nuclear in the total energy produced is even smaller. Think of transport. Electricity heating is strong where nuclear is strong, take France. So I think both are related, but your point is still valid.
