Abstract

This work is derived from an investigation of the carbon emissions associated with water use in dwellings in the UK [Clarke et al 2009]. This found that around 90% of the carbon emissions were from water use within the home. This is principally due to the heating of water, both in the domestic hot water system, and in appliances such as dishwashers.
