Homes responsible for one quarter of European greenhouse emissions from energy

A new report from the EEA states that european homes are responsible for 25 % of greenhouse emissions from energy:
Home energy use is responsible overall for 25 % of energy-related greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union (EU), according to a new analysis from the European Environment Agency (EEA). The report calculates emissions based on their 'end use', or the sector using the energy. Homes in the EU only emit 12 % of energy emissions directly, but this doubles when related emissions from power plants and district heating are factored in.
