Abstract

This paper presents some insights into Jordan's energy consumption in the urban residential sector. Eighteen percent of the country's total energy is consumed by the residential sector, which constitutes 84% of the country's residential energy consumption. Diesel fuel, bottled LPG, kerosene, and electricity are the main sources of energy in the urban residential sector.
