N2  - Increasing population in combination with intensive energy consumption of citizens is the main  driving  force  in  urban  area  in  developing  countries  that  lead  to  greenhouse  gas  emission  into  the  atmosphere.  Indirectly,  life  style  and  consumption  pattern  of  urban  people are also affecting the impact. This study attempts to assess energy consumption and carbon emissions at household level related to urban form by looking residential density in a  developing  city  in  Bandung  City,  Indonesia.  A  household  survey  was  undertaken  conducted  at  high,  medium,  and  low  residential  density  areas.  The  study  is  limited  only  from anthropogenic activities in the home, such as transport, cooking and electricity usage purposes.  Energy  and  carbon  conversion  factors  are  applied  and  multiple  regression  analysis  is  used  to  find  the  significant  influencing  factors  to  energy  use  and  carbon  emissions.  The  results  show  that  residents  in  high  density  area  have  much  lower  energy  and  carbon  emissions  generation  than  in  others  density  areas.  In  general,  the  key  influencing  factors  are  individual,  public  transport,  housing,  and  energy  use  behavior  factors.  The  proposed  measures  towards  energy  efficient  and  low  carbon  city  are  by  integrating  energy  efficiency  and  carbon  emission  reduction  in  spatial  planning  measure,  encouraging  financial  incentives  in  term  of  green  energy  and  building,  and  promoting  public education to citizens on energy efficiency and carbon emission reduction
