Abstract

The context of energy crisis hints conserving measures and effective use of primary forms of energy, in order to balance their availability and the ever-growing demand for them. In the domestic sector, the curve of electricity demand reveals the peaks caused by the hot water production. Thus, both technical and economical evaluation are carried out for many cases replacing eletricity by combustible gas in the domestic water heating; both new and occupied residential buildings are taken into account in   the present survey.
