Updated indicators in Energy Statistics 2015

In November 2016, Statistics Denmark published revised national accounts figures.

Statistics for gross value added, gross domestic product and employment are used

to calculate the indicators for energy intensity and energy consumption per

employee. These indicators are calculated by examining the relevant energy

consumption or carbon emissions in relation to an economic indicator.

The Danish Energy Agency has recalculated the indicators on the basis of the

revised national accounts figures for the entire Danish economy and the relevant

sectors, i.e. the agriculture and industry sector and the commercial and public

services sector. The effects of the revised national accounts figures on the

indicators are described below.

Figures for energy consumption have not been revised. In Energy Statistics 2015,

the indicators were calculated based on national accounts figures before revision.

Information regarding the revision of the national accounts is available on the

Statistics Denmark website at: www.dst.dk.

The graphs below show the energy indicators before and after the revision by Statistics Denmark. The graphs on the

left show the indicators calculated using the revised national accounts figures. In comparison, the graphs on the

right show the indicators calculated using the national accounts figures before revision.

Energy intensity, gross energy consumption and final energy consumption

Since 1990, energy intensity calculated on the basis of adjusted gross energy consumption has fallen by 38.0%,

while the fall before revision was calculated at 35.8% for the same period.

Since 1990, energy intensity for final energy consumption has fallen by 31.6%, while the fall before revision was

calculated at 29.2% for the same period.

CO2 intensity

Since 1990, CO2 intensity has fallen by 56.8%, while the fall before revision was calculated at 55.3% for the same

period.

Since 1990, energy intensity calculated on the basis of adjusted gross energy consumption has fallen by 38.0%,
