  1. The importance of energy balances Claire Morel , Statistics Programme Manager – IEA for EU4Energy Energy statistics national meeting, Chisinau, November 27th, 2018 IEA

  2. Overview Energy Quiz Why develop an energy balance? The energy balance table: what does it look like? Uses of energy balances

  3. Energy Quiz – Republic of Moldova Whatis the first energy source used in the country? Whatis the largestenergyconsumingsector? How isenergy use evolving over the years? Are we on track to meet national/international energy and climatetargets?

  4. Energy balances bring all information together “…An accounting framework for compilation of data on all energy products entering, exiting, and used within the national territory of a given country during a reference period.” … electricity gas coal oil Source: International Recommendations on Energy Statistics (IRES), UNSD, 2011

  5. The Energybalancematrix The total column represents the total energy used by a country in a given year Columns present all energy products used in a country …made comparable by converting to a common energy unit.

  6. Rows allows to understand the flows of energy Supply Where is the energy coming from? Transformation Final consumption Who/what sectors are consuming this energy?

  7. Energy balances are used to get the full energypicture • 4 keys to analyse the energy situation of a country • Total PrimaryEnergySupply (TPES) • the total energyused a givenyear • Production/TPES • the energydependency of the country • TPES by energy source • the energy mix • The total final consumption by sector • the drivers of energy of use

  8. To develop high-levelindicators To monitor progress towards policy targets Source: IEA, World Energy Balances, 2017 Most energy policy targets set today are monitored by indicators calculated directly or indirectly from energy balances energy intensity, self-sufficiency share of renewable energy, C02 emissions

  9. Toprojectenergydemand For energy modellers, long and consistent time series are key

  10. Conclusion - Why develop energy balances ? To understand overall energy use in country, e.g. • total energy use • share of different sources in energy mix • contribution of sectors in energy demand And prioritize key issues To calculate high-level indicators for energy policy-tracking (self-sufficiency, intensity, ..) and CO2 emissions from fuel combustion To use as basis for developing different energy scenarios for the country To assess check data quality and completeness
