Home energy saving is essential to prevent global warming, and it is not exception in the local city. Akita prefecture has drawn up ‘Regional Promotion Plans for Combating Global Warming in Akita’ in 2017, and declared the CO2 reduction of 26.0% from 2013 levels by 2030 in the residential sector. The development of scenarios for energy saving should be useful to implement the new scheme of low carbon society. Authors have already built the simulation method to forecast home energy consumption in the future. This paper describes the prediction accuracy of our methodology and the possibility of CO2 reduction level with the penetration of several energy saving technologies.
