3.1. Data description | |||
Physical energy flow accounts (PEFA) is one module of the European environmental-economic accounts - Regulation (EU) 691/2011 Annex VI. PEFA record the flows of energy (in terajoules) from the environment to the economy (natural inputs), within the economy (products), and from the economy back to the environment (residuals), using the accounting framework of physical supply and use tables. PEFA provide information on energy flows arranged in a way fully compatible with concepts, principles, and classifications of national accounts – thus enabling integrated analyses of environmental, energy and economic issues e.g. through environmental-economic modelling. PEFA complement the traditional energy statistics, balances and derived indicators which are the main reference data source for EU energy policies.
The PEFA questionnaire is available on Eurostat's website: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/environment/methodology |
|||
3.2. Classification system | |||
Physical energy flow accounts (PEFA) datasets have the following dimensions:
|
|||
3.3. Coverage - sector | |||
The data set covers the entire national economy as defined in national accounts (ESA 2010, paragraph 2.04), as well as its physical relation to economies in the rest of the world and the environment.
|
|||
3.4. Statistical concepts and definitions | |||
Physical energy flow accounts (PEFA) are conceptually rooted in the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (SEEA) which is an international statistical standard. The SEEA central framework provides standard concepts, definitions, classifications, accounting rules and tables for the provision of statistics on the environment and its relationship with the economy. |
|||
3.5. Statistical unit | |||
Data refer to activities of resident economic units in the sense of SEEA CF 2012 and national accounts (ESA), including households. |
|||
3.6. Statistical population | |||
The national economy is as defined in SEEA CF 2012 and national accounts (ESA); i.e. all economic activities undertaken by resident units (see ESA 2010, paragraph 2.04). A unit is said to be a resident unit of a country when it has a centre of economic interest in the economic territory of that country, that is, when it engages for an extended period (1 year or more) in economic activities in that territory. |

EEEA currently include six modules (air emissions accounts, environmentally related taxes by economic activity, economy-wide material flow accounts, environmental protection expenditure accounts, environmental goods and services sector accounts, and physical energy flow accounts). |

18.1. Source data | |||
Data sources used to produce physical energy flow accounts are described in the following sub-concepts. |
|||
18.1.1. Which are the main data sources you employ for the use of natural energy inputs (i.e. who is extracting)? | |||
the main data source is energy survey to energy producers |
|||
18.1.2. Which are the main data sources you employ for supply of energy products (e.g. electricity, refinery products etc.)? | |||
the main data source is energy survey to energy producers |
|||
18.1.3. Which are the main data sources you employ for the transformation use by energy transforming entities (NACE 2-digit divisions)? | |||
the main data source is energy survey to energy producers |
|||
18.1.4. Which are the main data sources you employ for the end use by end user entities (including non-energy use)? | |||
the main data source is SBS and HBS |
|||
18.1.5. Which auxiliary data do you use to develop 'distribution keys' to assign energy use to the detailed breakdown of production activities (NACE 2-digit divisions) and categories of household consumption? | |||
To distribute energy consumption by Nace, statistics from energy balance which basically use statistics from national account based mainly on data collected via SBS survey are used |
|||
18.1.6. Do you use the PEFA builder? If yes: for populating the PEFA Tables, or for control only? | |||
No |
|||
18.1.7. Which data sources do you use to make adjustments for the residence principle? | |||
We use a model to estimate the non resident consumption and substract it from total consumption. |
|||
18.2. Frequency of data collection | |||
the main data sources are collected annually |
|||
18.3. Data collection | |||
|
|||

18.5.1. Imputation - rate | |||
Not applicable. |
|||
18.5.2. Do you assign all supply of electricity and heat to NACE D35, or do you assign some to other NACE divisions than D35? Is the assignment you did fully aligned to the ESA monetary supply table submitted by your country? | |||
all autoproducers electricity produced is reported in D35 |
|||
18.5.3. Which method do you use for the allocation of road transport energy use to NACE industries and households? | |||
A mixed method between survey and modeling is applied to allocate road transport energy use |
|||
18.5.4. Which method do you use for the allocation of energy use to detailed service industries (i.e. NACE 2-digit divisions 55-98)? | |||
we use mainly the microdata of SBS survey to estimate these nace divisions |
|||
18.5.5. How do you ensure a coherent assignment of energy use to economic activities (i.e. the use of energy products by a given production activity (NACE A*64 division) reported in PEFA must be coherent with the emissions reported in AEA)? | |||
The results of PEFA are used to compile the AEA. A simple method (activities* emission factor) are used to estimate air emissions related to energy consumption By this process the consistency should be guarantee |
