VariableID(Demand\Household\Refrigeration:Final
Energy Intensity) = 2040 (the ID of the final energy intensity variable)
VariableID(Demand\Household\Refrigeration:Activity Level) = 2027 (the ID
of the activity level variable)
VariableID(My User Variable) = the ID of the added user variable named
"My User Variable"
