Reference metadata describe statistical concepts and methodologies used for the collection and generation of data. They provide information on data quality and, since they are strongly content-oriented, assist users in interpreting the data. Reference metadata, unlike structural metadata, can be decoupled from the data.
The environmental goods and services sector (EGSS) accounts report on an economic sector that generates goods and services produced for environmental protection or the management of natural resources.
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.
In addition, the data contain information on investments for climate change mitigation (CCM). Those investments aim at reducing the emission of greenhouse gases either by source or enhancing the removal from the atmosphere.
EGSS and CCM 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
The type of environmental purpose and
economic activity.
The environmental activities are classified by purpose according to the classification of environmental purposes (CEP). Economic activity is classified according to the NACE 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. 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').
CCM investments comprise a sub-sector of the EGSS as well as activities and products beyond the scope of the CEP.
3.4. Statistical concepts and definitions
Environmental Goods and Service Sector:
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. Output for own final use is to be valued at basic prices of similar products sold on the market or by the total costs of production. Non-market output is to be estimated by the total costs of production. Ancillary output is measured as a total of recurrent production costs (such as intermediate consumption, compensation of employees and consumption of fixed capital) incurred by enterprises to: 1) reduce environmental pressures arising from their production process or 2) produce environmental goods or services not intended for use outside the enterprise, but instead supporting other (non-environmental) activities undertaken within the enterprise (e.g. waste management services carried out in-house). For market producers, a mark-up for net operating surplus is added to the value of the EGSS ancillary output. Gross Value Added: represents the contribution made by the production of environmental goods and services to GDP. It is the difference between the value of the output and intermediate consumption.
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.
Investments for climate change mitigation:
The reporting covers the capital expenditure to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by source or enhance their removal from the atmosphere by sinks.
Capital expenditure includes:
For activities and products covered by the CEP:
Gross fixed capital formation (GFCF – ESA 2010 code: P51g) for climate change mitigation related characteristic activities (i.e. GFCF for the production of specific services related to climate change mitigation)
GFCF in specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods related to climate change mitigation, unless they are already included in GFCF by CCM (characteristic) activities
and final consumption (ESA 2010 code: P3) in specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods related to climate change mitigation.
For activities and products relevant for CCM but outside the scope of CEP:
GFCF for the production of nuclear energy and for R&D related to nuclear energy
GFCF for the transmission and distribution of energy, in particular electricity
GFCF for the production of low carbon transport activities
GFCF in transport infrastructure for low carbon transport activities.
Where:
GFCF for climate change mitigation characteristic activities is broken down by corporations, government and households together with non-profit institutions serving households (NPISH)
GFCF for specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods, mitigating climate change, is broken down by corporations, government and households together with NPISH
Final consumption of specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods, mitigating climate change, is broken down by government and households together with NPISH.
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 data collection and compilation of private corporations is the establishment. For general government, households and NPISH, 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

18.1.4. Source data - detailed - other macro economic data (trade, VAT etc.)
EGSS: Agriculture statistical data are used to calculate for example: value of output of organic farming.
Due to the lack of specific datasets regarding NZEB’s or buildings better than NZEB’s, the data has been estimated on the basis of construction and assembly production carried out in Poland and Central register of energy characteristic of buildings managed by Ministry of Economic Development and Technology.
CCM investments: State Forestry statistics are used to calculate relevant CEP categories.

18.5.1. Imputation - rate
Not requested for this metadata collection.
18.5.2. Data compilation - by variable and type of output
EGSS:
Output - The data used come from a wide variety of sources, including administrative sources, National Accounts, structural business statistics, business register, foreign trade statistics, agricultural statistics and Statistic’s Poland survey on current cost on environmental protection and water management in entities from the relevant section of NACE Rev. 2.
Market output is constituted by goods and services sold or intended for sale on the market. It includes:
sold products at economically reasonable prices,
transferred products by way of barter exchange,
payment used as payment in kind,
products supplied by one local kind-of-activity unit (local KAU) to another for intermediate consumption or satisfying final demand,
products added to inventory of ready-made products and unfinished output meant for use in at least one case mentioned above (including live inventory and vegetable products being in the phase of growth and unfinished buildings the buyer of which remains unknown).
In order to estimate the market output, sales revenue is used.
Non-market output includes goods and services transferred to other institutional units free-of-charge or at prices which are not economically justified. The remaining non-market output includes: payments for the remaining non-market outputs – non-market output sold at economically unjustified prices, covering only some output costs and remaining non-market output covering output which is delivered free-of-charge. Non-market output is evaluated on the basis of incurred costs.
Additionally, on the basis of goods and services related to environmental protection, in section F of Statistic’s Poland own survey, the percentage of construction production and assembly related to environmental protection was estimated. Subsequently, it was assumed that the value of CEP 0202 will be estimated using that percentage as a part of construction and assembly production related to the implementation of electrical, plumbing and other building installations. We found that those installation’s categories values are the most related to constructions of NZEB’s, as we assumed that the majority of production value related to NZEB’s will be tied to specialized home installations. To further improve the quality of data a share for all NACE F production was calculated based on Central register of energy characteristic of buildings.
The quality of reported data for CEP 0302 was also improved, with the aim to report data related only to true water savings. A share for all CEP 0302 activities was calculated based on Statistics Poland’s publication “Innovation activities of enterprises in the years 2020–2022”.
Gross Value Added – A model recommended by Eurostat in which gross value added is proportional to the value of output is used.
Exports - In the case when 100% of the size of output is classified from environmental goods and services, value of exports is directly taken from national accounts. In Poland it is possible to use data concerning foreign trade turnover and it is necessary to use merged nomenclature CN.
In the case of products some of which belong to EGSS it is necessary to decide which shares may be attributed to environmental protection and resource management. It is possible to use equal coefficients as in the case of market output, however – if there exist other credible sources of information it is necessary to adjust appropriate coefficients.
Employment - In case of ancillary output we use data collected under EPEA. These are, however, data concerning CEP 0302 domains (expenses on water management are collected in Poland both during the survey of investment outlays and current costs). Employment to CEP 0302 domains is assigned in proportion to the structure of the value of auxiliary output.
Collected under EPEA information in section E (NACE 36-39) are related to employment refer to market output of environmental services.
In the case of market output in other types of activities than section E and section O we use Eurostat proposals from Practical guide. The source of data on the share of wages in the value of output and the size of employment in different NACE groups is SBS statistics.
General EGGS note: Due to available data's levels of granularity Statistics Poland is for the time being only able to estimate values for CEP 020202 for NACE F which is then shown as full value of CEP 0202.
CCM:
Data beyond CEP scope are not currently collected.
Flag "P" for final consumption for Households and NPISH and investments of Corporations - Currently identified data sources are highly aggregated, in ragards to final consumption and for categories that only partially fall within the scope of the CCM, which introudces challenges in calculating shares. To avoid the risk of inconsistent and unstable estimates, data has been omitted from this report. Once new indicators are prepared and deemed being of sufficient quality, a data review will be conducted to ensure full temporal consistency and substantive accuracy of the reporting.
18.5.3. Data compilation - by NACE
EGSS: Approach based on the classification of the producer of EGSS goods and activities is used.
CCM: Approach based on the sector and NACE Rev. 2 of the investor is used in conjuction with classification of the investment to relevant characteristic activities or cleaner/resource efficient products and specific goods is used.
18.5.4. Data compilation – CReMA 13B memo item
Due to lack of specific datasets we are using one of the recommended methods, that is assuming that CEP 020202_NZEB for NACE F is equal to 20%.
The environmental goods and services sector (EGSS) accounts report on an economic sector that generates goods and services produced for environmental protection or the management of natural resources.
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.
In addition, the data contain information on investments for climate change mitigation (CCM). Those investments aim at reducing the emission of greenhouse gases either by source or enhancing the removal from the atmosphere.
EGSS and CCM data are compiled following the statistical concepts and definitions set out in the UN System of Environmental-Economic Accounting 2012 – Central Framework.

Environmental Goods and Service Sector:
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. Output for own final use is to be valued at basic prices of similar products sold on the market or by the total costs of production. Non-market output is to be estimated by the total costs of production. Ancillary output is measured as a total of recurrent production costs (such as intermediate consumption, compensation of employees and consumption of fixed capital) incurred by enterprises to: 1) reduce environmental pressures arising from their production process or 2) produce environmental goods or services not intended for use outside the enterprise, but instead supporting other (non-environmental) activities undertaken within the enterprise (e.g. waste management services carried out in-house). For market producers, a mark-up for net operating surplus is added to the value of the EGSS ancillary output. Gross Value Added: represents the contribution made by the production of environmental goods and services to GDP. It is the difference between the value of the output and intermediate consumption.
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.
Investments for climate change mitigation:
The reporting covers the capital expenditure to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by source or enhance their removal from the atmosphere by sinks.
Capital expenditure includes:
For activities and products covered by the CEP:
Gross fixed capital formation (GFCF – ESA 2010 code: P51g) for climate change mitigation related characteristic activities (i.e. GFCF for the production of specific services related to climate change mitigation)
GFCF in specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods related to climate change mitigation, unless they are already included in GFCF by CCM (characteristic) activities
and final consumption (ESA 2010 code: P3) in specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods related to climate change mitigation.
For activities and products relevant for CCM but outside the scope of CEP:
GFCF for the production of nuclear energy and for R&D related to nuclear energy
GFCF for the transmission and distribution of energy, in particular electricity
GFCF for the production of low carbon transport activities
GFCF in transport infrastructure for low carbon transport activities.
Where:
GFCF for climate change mitigation characteristic activities is broken down by corporations, government and households together with non-profit institutions serving households (NPISH)
GFCF for specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods, mitigating climate change, is broken down by corporations, government and households together with NPISH
Final consumption of specific and cleaner and resource efficient goods, mitigating climate change, is broken down by government and households together with NPISH.
