Abstract: For a long time, research on energy conservation is mostly focused on industry sector, while the research on energy consumption of residents is not deep enough. With the improvement of resident's living and strong promotion of urbanization, the energy consumption of urban residents is increasing rapidly and has become the key sector of energy consumption in whole society. Therefore, the energy consumption efficiency of urban residents has significant impacts on energy conservation of the whole society. By taking the energy consumption of urban residents in Guangdong province for case study, the total amount and structure of energy consumption of urban residents in Guangdong province are studied based on the LEAP model by using the scenario analysis method, which can provide a basis for establishing a sustainable resident's energy consumption mode, and a decision-making reference for formulating relevant policies on resident's energy conservation.

Key words: energy consumption, energy conservation and emissions reduction, LEAP model
