The authors investigate the energy consumption of 58 aged welfare facilities with habitation in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions. The facilities are classified into five groups based on the Act on Social Welfare for the Elderly. Each group shows the annual energy consumption from 1.1 to 2.1 GJ per floor area on the average. Moreover, the energy consumption of hot water supply for bath, the one for space cooling or heating and the rest which means the base energy are divided from the monthly energy consumptions on the whole buildings. The calculated energy for each application can be explained by the characteristics of the facilities and the system specifications by using a statistic theory which is called the Quantity Theory Cluster I.
