These statistics have a specific section with all the information available: Energy Balance (ENE).

Methodological note

The indicator measures the total energy needs of an area excluding all non-energy use of energy vectors (e.g. natural gas used not for combustion but for producing chemicals). It is calculated as the aggregation of local production with the energy import / energy export balance, taking into account stock variations and bunkers.

"Primary energy consumption" encompasses the energy consumption of end users such as industry, transport, households, services, and the primary sector, in addition to the energy consumption of the energy sector itself for the production and transformation of energy, the losses occurring during energy transformation (for example, the efficiency of electricity generation from fuel sources), and energy losses from transport and distribution.

The data in the whole time series are revised annually.
