Are these sentences describing proportions grammatically correct?

"15% of household energy usage is for othe appliances, compared to 7% for refrigerator."

"Heating accounts for the largest proportion in the bar chart, with 32%, followed by other appliances, with 28%."

'Usage' is a poor choice there. 15% of household energy use is for all other appliances, compared to 7% for the refrigerator. In the bar chart, heating accounts for the largest propo rtion at 32%, followed by other appliance s at 2 8%.
