3.1. Data description | |||
Products for environmental protection prevent, reduce and eliminate pollution or any other degradation of the environment. Examples are electric vehicles, catalysts and filters to decrease pollutant emissions, wastewater and waste treatment services, noise insulation works or restoration of degraded habitats. Products for resource management safeguard the stock of natural resources against depletion. Examples are renewable energy production, energy-efficient and passive buildings, seawater desalinization or rainwater recovery, and materials recovery. EGSS accounts provide data on output and export of environmental goods and services and on the value added of and employment in the environmental goods and services sector. EGSS data are compiled following the statistical concepts and definitions set out in the UN System of Environmental-Economic Accounting 2012 – Central Framework. |
|||
3.2. Classification system | |||
Data are reported cross-classified by 1) the type of environmental protection or resource management activity and 2) economic activity. Environmental protection activities are classified by environmental domain as set out in the Classification of Environmental Protection Activities - CEPA. Resource management activities are classified as set out in the Classification of Resource Management Activities - CReMA. see the revised CEPA and CReMA explanatory notes for detail. Economic activity is classified according to the Statistical Classification of Economic Activities in the European Community, Rev. 2 (2008). |
|||
3.3. Coverage - sector | |||
EGSS comprises a sector of the economy that produces goods and services aimed at environmental protection and resource management (see SEEA CF 2012 chapter 4). Environmental goods and services either reduce environmental pressures or help maintaining the stock of natural resources or they are designed to be cleaner and more resource efficient than conventional products. Environmental goods and services can be produced by corporations, households, governments and non-profit institutions. The list of environmental activities and products has been set out in the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2174 ('the indicative compendium of environmental goods and services'). |
|||
3.4. Statistical concepts and definitions | |||
EGSS has the same system boundaries as the European System of Accounts (ESA 2010) and consists of all environmental products within this production boundary. ESA defines production as the activity carried out under the control and responsibility of an institutional unit that uses input of labour, capital, goods and services to produce output of goods and services. Only goods and services produced for environmental purposes are included in the scope of the environmental goods and services sector. 'Environmental purpose' means that a good or service helps either 1) preventing, reducing and eliminating pollution and any other degradation of the environment or 2) preserving and maintaining the stock of natural resources and hence safeguarding against depletion. The EGSS statistics aim at compiling data for the following economic variables: Output: consists of products that become available for use outside of the producer unit, any goods and services produced for own final use and goods that remain in the inventories at the end of the period in which they are produced. Apart from market output, output for own final use and non-market output, EGSS statistics also include ancillary output, comprising output intended for use within an enterprise. Market output is to be valued at basic prices, that is, the prices receivable by the producer from the purchaser minus taxes and plus subsidies on products. Employment: is measured in full-time equivalent jobs engaged in the production of output of environmental goods and services. Full-time equivalent is defined as total hours worked divided by the average annual working hours in a full-time job. Exports: consist of sales, barter, gifts, or grants, of environmental goods and services from residents to non-residents. |
|||
3.5. Statistical unit | |||
Council Regulation (EEC) No 696/93 of 15 March 1993 on the statistical units for the observation and analysis of the production system in the Community describes the different statistical units of the production system. The recommended statistical unit for the collection and compilation of EGSS statistics (excluding general government) is the establishment. For general government, the recommendation is to use institutional units and groupings of units as defined in the European System of Accounts (ESA 2010). |
|||
3.6. Statistical population | |||

Methodology for output of energy efficient renovation for 2021 was improved in collaboration of experts from Tallinn University of Technology. Methodology developed for output of energy efficient renovation is still based on top-down approach, but the different methods were used for output estimations by the type of buildings (respectively small residential buildings, apartment buildings and non-residential buildings). For energy efficient renovation of apartment buildings, data on project’s total costs financed from European Union Structural Funds and data on state funding by KredEx were used to estimate the size of the output. Regarding small residential buildings and non-residential buildings, the approach was diferent: using renovated square meters data from building permits and multiplying this with unit cost of energy efficient renovation give an estimation for output. Revision in time series can be done after the contracts with the data holders are signed and their data of earlier years are transmitted to Statistics Estonia and calculations for output are made.
Other years and methodologies are comparable and does not have breaks in time series. |
|||
15.2.1. Length of comparable time series | |||
EGSS is available and comparable for years 2014-2021. 2021 output of energy efficient renovation is calculated using different methodology than in previous years |
|||
15.2.2. Comparability - over time detailed | |||
15.3. Coherence - cross domain | |||
So far comparisons of EGSS results with business, energy, agricultural and foreign trade statistics have not been made. Business, energy and foreign trade statistics are used as data sources for EGSS. EGSS results are compared with national accounts and SUT data. |
|||
15.3.1. Coherence - sub annual and annual statistics | |||
So far comparisons of EGSS results with business, energy, agricultural and foreign trade statistics have not been made. Business, energy and foreign trade statistics are used as data sources for EGSS. EGSS results are compared with national accounts and SUT data. |
|||
15.3.2. Coherence - National Accounts | |||
National accounts are one of the data sources for the compilation of EGSS. There are checks in place to make sure that the EGSS output in any NACE does not exceed the total output of national accounts in that NACE categories. An analogous rule is in place for exports, GVA and employment as well. National accounts measurement rules are followed and adjustments are made based on these rules. |
|||
15.3.3. Coherence - EPEA | |||
EGSS results should be coherent with EPEA data. as parts of both of these datasets are compiled using same data sources and methods. |
|||
15.3.4. Coherence - other statistics | |||
15.4. Coherence - internal | |||
National accounts are used as a data source in many cases and in the case of data from business register and SBS turnover is transformed to output using the same formulas as national accounts uses. Consistency with national accounts data is checked for output, GVA, exports and employment. National accounts measurement rules are followed and adjustments are made based on these rules. |
|
|||
0,6 full-time equivalents of work are required to compile the EGSS account. |
|||
16.1. Cost and Burden - other accounts | |||
The costs and burden to compile EGSS data is comparable to those of other accounts. |
|
|||
17.1. Data revision - policy | |||
Data are revised when new national accounts data are available. Data are final when SUT data are available for a given year. |
|||
17.2. Data revision - practice | |||
The data for 2019 has been revised according to finalised SUT tables for 2019. The data for 2020 has been revised according to updated national accounts tables. Some environmental shares of EGSS producers have been updated whch also causes some changes in the size of output etc.

|
|||
18.1. Source data | |||
Data from Statistics Estonia:
data on national accounts (GDP and its components, GFCF, employment),
financial statistics of enterprises - output of EGSS goods and services,
production statistics - output of EGSS goods,
energy statistics - output of renewable energy,
foreign trade statistics - export of goods,
employment statistics,
EPEA - for ancillary output.
Data from other institutions:
Business Register - output of EGSS goods and services,
Estonian Agricultural Board and Farm Accountancy Data Network for organic farming output,
Estonian Agricultural Registers and Information Board - data on environmental subsidies,
Estonian Road Administration - data on the construction of noise barriers and pedestrian roads,
Environmental Investment Centre - data on environmental investments
Estonian Environmental Agency - data on waste and wastewater management (physical data)
Balance of Payments - data on export of EGSS services
The list of EGSS enterprises in Estonia is used to determine the relevant enterprises.
E-mail survey is used to specify environmental shares of secondary EGSS producers in case other information sources are not exhaustive.

|||
18.3. Data collection | |||
Dedicated survey is not used. An e-mail survey has been used in the past to specify environmental shares of secondary EGSS producers in case other information sources are not exhaustive. Administrative data are mainly used. |
|||
18.4. Data validation | |||
Yes, there are validation rules in place. There are checks in place to make sure that the EGSS output in any NACE does not exceed the total output of national accounts in that NACE categories. An analogous rule is in place for exports, GVA and employment as well. Another check that is performed is to make sure that exports do not exceed output in any given methodology block. The usual sums checks are also made automatically. There is no dedicated regular survey to enterprises regarding environmental goods and services. Administrative data or data from other statistical surveys and activities are mostly used for EGSS compilation. The quality of these already collected data are not checked separately as it is assumed that the quality of these data is assured in other statistical departments or other institutions. We do compare SBS data with business register data. If the outputs from these two sources are different, SBS data is preferred. |
|||
18.5. Data compilation | |||
Output: There are over 30 different methodological blocks to calculate the data for EGSS output. These methods use different basic data. Some methods are top-down, some are bottom-up. Formulas from national accounts are used for output calculations - for example turnover from SBS data is turned to output based on national accounts formulas. There are validation checks in place to make sure the output of EGSS does not exceed NA output in any economic activity. The methodologies have been developed on the basis of the nature of the environmental activity (for example construction services, organic goods, waste management service etc.).For example energy saving construction services output is calculated with a top-down method using data on the area of reconstructed buildings and the average unit cost of energy efficient renovation. Some other services (consultation services etc.) were calculated by bottom-up method: enterprise output data from SBS or business register. The same applies for products. For example the output of organic farming products is calculated using FADN data on the output of an average organic farm multiplied by the number of organic farms in Estonia. For other cleaner goods SBS or business register data of specific enterprises were used. There is no clear difference in the calculation of output of environmental specific services, cleaner and resource efficient products and other (connected) products. In the cases where detailed enterprise information is available, it is possible to assign each enterprise to market and non-market activity based on information of the institutional sector of the enterprise. Usually enterprises belonging to S.11, S.12, S.14 are market producers and S.13, S. 15 are non-market producers. For top-down methodologies it is assumed based on the kind of activity whether the activity is market or non-market.The breakdown by NACE is reported mostly based on the NACE of the enterprise that produces EGSS goods and services. For top-down methodologies NACE is reported based on product classification and on expert information. For example, construction activities are reported under NACE F41-43 and M71, the allocation to M71 is based on expert opinion that 10% of construction activities are architectural services. The scope of EGSS products and activities is determined based on the EGSS operational list from Eurostat and also consultations with national experts. The scope is not reviewed regularly. New products are added when there is information available on these products (for example information on the Internet and other media, information from specialised associations etc.). If it is not possible to determine the environmental share on the basis of business register yearly reports or information available on internet we used a telephone/e-mail survey. At first a telephone survey is preferred but an e-mail survey turned out to be more convenient for the respondents. The survey is conducted with EGSS enterprises and they were asked the shares of their environmental output and exports by environmental products. For example, if an enterprise produced both pipes for wastewater and water management they were asked the shares of these products separately for an easier split to CEPA/CREMA categories. The environmental share is determined separately for the CEPA and CREMA output of an enterprise. A separate share is determined for exports. The share is enterprise-based so there is no separate share for NACEs. The share is fixed only for a certain period of time and is updated every 3-5 years using data from available data sources. Value added: The Eurostat formula for calculating gross value added presented in the EGSS practical guide is used to calculate GVA - using calculated EGSS output data and macroeconomic variables. GVA is calculated separately for market and non-market output. Exports: The approach is enterprise-based. Enterprises producing environmental goods are matched to foreign trade statistics. As these enterprises also may produce other kinds of goods, it is necessary to determine which exported goods are environmental. The CN product classification is used to determine which products in foreign trade statistics to take into account in EGSS calculations. In some cases the CN product may be only partly environmental. For these cases a telephone/e-mail survey was conducted with secondary EGSS producers to determine the share of EGSS export in the total exports. Employment: For the calculation of employment of EGSS in general the assumption is made that for each economic activity the EGSS-related employment in total employment makes up the same share as the output of a specific EGSS product in the total output in national accounts by each economic activity. Coefficients for transforming employment data from the number of employees to full time equivalents were calculated. Coefficients are calculated as a ratio between full time equivalents and number of employees (FTE/PER). In national accounts employment data are available in full time equivalents only for A*21 activities level (the number of employees is available even on A*64 activities level). For that reason coefficients are calculated on A*21 activities level. MEMO ITEM_CReMA 13B - energy efficiency related measures for NEARLY ZERO ENERGY BUILDINGS: The memo item covers construction of new buildings, specifically new more resource-efficient buildings. The share of resource-efficient buildings is estimated using 20% and share of new A-energy level buildings from all new buildings the method was suggested by expert on the field. |
