Modeling energy demand in various sectors of energy consumption, including measures to increase productivity and better management of this sector and energy efficiency has always been the main objectives of energy policymaker. In this study by applying spatial econometrics and using factors affecting the household energy consumption, we estimated the energy demand for provinces of Iran during 1381-1388. Results indicate that the energy consumption is inelastic to price and elastic to per capita income of individuals and populations and with increasing household size, the energy consumption is reduced. The results suggest that energy consumption in the provinces of Iran follows the spatial pattern.
