Abstract—The article presents the views of energy scholars, researchers about household energy efficiency in global sphere. Past and current trends in the field of energy analysis are investigated. The objective of this paper is to provide brief household energy analysis and rather, it reviews current knowledge on energy analysis and identifies factors affecting the energy requirements and energy use patterns among households. The paper also combines the global barriers of household energy efficiency. We have summarized the recommendations of worldwide energy researchers to enhance the energy efficiency. The paper provide research gap, which will be positively useful for techno social researchers. The results of energy education experiments, energy information system seems to be helpful for governments and policy makers. However US, European, Chinese, Japanese research has been able to measure the influence of behavior on household energy consumption, to date Indian research has been unable to do so.

Index Terms—energy awareness, energy conservation, energy efficiency, electricity, household behavior.
