Аннотация:For the first time for mid latitudes and with the use of long-term data of Moscow State University Meteorological observatory a dependence of electric power consumption on the air temperature has been studied for each separate day for the period from 1990 to 2015. As it is shown this relation is in general decreasing in conditions of Moscow region: energy consumption as a rule reduces with a rise of the temperature. However, in time of severe frosts the energy consumption increase goes to nothing due to special measures for energy savings whereas during hot weather an opposite tendency appears to the energy consumption increase with the increase of the air temperature due to additional consumption for the air conditioning. The optimum temperature for the energy saving is 18 ˚C. The air temperature limit values in Moscow during last decades have been discussed. Catastrophic heat wave in 2010 appeared as a secondary summer maximum of the energy consumption annual course. In recent years the dependence of energy consumption on the air temperature generally became stronger – probably due to changes of its structure (growth of non-industrial users’ contribution). A relation of energy consumption with the relative humidity is absent whereas a relation of energy consumption with the water vapor pressure indirectly reflects a dependence of this parameter on the air temperature.
