According to our calculations based on the September 2011 Short-Term Energy Outlook, the average household will spend about $2,175 on residential energy consumption and about $3,375 on transportation energy consumption in 2011, for a total of about $5,550. \u00a0This is about 14% higher than our calculations for 2010 and about 21% higher than our calculations for 2009. Transportation costs are expected to be about 24% higher than they were in 2010 and residential energy costs are about 1% higher than they were in 2010.
