The purpose of this research is to analyze the impact of various characteristics on energy consumption when heating price change. Previous research has not investigated the impact of changing energy price change, and the analysis of heating energy consumption has primarily relied on physical and sociological characteristic data. This approach fails to reveal the factors influencing energy consumption in response to changes in heating energy price. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of various characteristics on heating energy consumption when heating energy price change. As a result, first, it was found that the spatial characteristics of the water system ratio, the green area ratio, and the average altitude affect the probability of increasing and decreasing the use of heating energy. Second, physical characteristics were found to have an effect on both the increase and decrease in heating energy use as heating price rise. Third, among the demographic and sociological characteristics, the average aging index and the average elderly support ratio only affect the probability of a decrease in heating energy use per household compared to apartments that do not change heating energy use per household. The results of this study can be used as basic data for establishing energy support policies due to rising energy prices in the future by presenting the physical and spatial characteristics of urban space to be considered in urban regeneration and maintenance projects.
