 |<WRAP box 10cm>How relevant actually is space heating? The adjacent pie chart shows that the two energy services "transportation" and "space heating" each account for around 30% of the total final energy consumption. These are thus the most significant single energy applications. From the way in which we improve the efficiency of these uses, we can learn something for the other energy services as well, and the following slides will also illustrate this. The third largest chunk "process heat" is in fact a mishmash of completely different applications, from ore smelting to candle-making; experts for process technology can develop concepts for improving the efficiency of each of these processes - which in many cases has also been successful. The solutions are available, but to a huge part not used.</WRAP>|{{:picopen:26_germany_energy_consumption_kwh_per_capita_and_year.png?&650|}}\\ <sub>**Figure 26 **</sub>|
 =====Energy service: Transport=====
-|<WRAP box 10cm>Transportation is the other major reason for our high final energy demand; this energy consumption is largely due to motorised private transport, i.e. cars and motorcycles. A measure for the energy service has been in place in Europe for decades: the annual mileage of vehicles. In 2010 this was 905 billion kilometres for cars ( $ = s_E_S $ ) (energy service) in total in Germany, 718 billion kWh of petrol/gasoline were consumed as the "input" for this purpose. For a distance of 100 km these vehicles therefore had a specific energy consumption of
