Feedback from Data Users

To ensure that DTI continues to meet the needs of users of its sub national energy data, the Department wants to encourage data users to give feedback on the usefulness of the information provided on this webpage. As part of this process a short questionnaire is available, which can be accessed from the following link.

Gas And Electricity

Gas consumption statistics at regional (NUTS1) and local (NUTS4) levels for 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004 are available by using the links below:

Gas sales and numbers of customers by region and area, 2004   (124Kb)

Gas sales and numbers of customers by region and area, 2003   (150Kb)

Gas sales and numbers of customers by region and area, 2002   (150Kb)

Gas sales and numbers of customers by region and area, 2001   (150Kb)

Experimental electricity consumption statistics for 2003 and 2004 at the regional and local levels is available from the link below:

Regional and local electricity consumption statistics, 2004 (experimental).   (95Kb)

Regional and local electricity consumption statistics, 2003 (experimental)   (145Kb)

Details about how the information on electricity and gas consumption has been collected and collated can also be found in the articles in the June and December 2005 editions of Energy Trends (see 'Related Documents').

Road Transport Fuels

DTI has also released consumption statistics for fuels used in road transport at regional and local levels, which are available by using the links below:

Regional and local road transport consumption statistics 2002-2004   (377Kb)

Details about how the information on road transport fuels consumption has been collected and collated can also be found in the articles in the June and December 2005 editions of Energy Trends (see 'Related Documents').

The figures were provided for the DTI by Netcen.  Netcen are a leading provider of consultancy, technical services and field services in air quality, contaminated land and waste management. Netcen runs the National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory (NAEI) which is used by government departments, local authorities, regulators and industry.

Other Fuels

Information on other fuels including manufactured solid fuels, renewables, industrial petroleum and coal is available in the December 2005 edition of Energy Trends at both regional (NUTS1) and local (NUTS4) levels.

Local and regional estimates of energy consumption other than gas, electricity and road transport for 2003: Report by Netcen   (97Kb)

Estimates of total final energy consumption in 2003 was published for the first time in the December 2005 edition of Energy Trends by aggregating the four main data sets shown above at both regional (NUTS1) and local (NUTS4) levels.

High Level Energy Indicators

Experimental high level indicators have been produced to complement the published 2003 local and regional energy data and to assist sub national bodies develop and monitor local and regional energy strategies. A guidance note to aid interpretation and data sets are available below.

Experimental high level energy indicators for 2003   (150Kb)

Quality Indicators

A set of quality indicators has been developed to help users understand the reliability of the 2004 local and regional electricity and gas consumption data. A guidance note and data sets are made available below.

Regional and local electricity and gas quality indicators for 2004   (1358Kb)

CO2 estimates

Defra have also released experimental 2003 estimates of local (NUTS4) and regional (NUTS1) CO2 emissions by sector. These estimates have been produced by Netcen, using much of the DTI local and regional energy consumption statistics as base data, and are available on the Defra website (see 'External Links').

Future work will include:

Information on:

• Compiling estimates of electricity for small areas (using middle layer super output areas, covering on average around 3,000 households).
• Improving access to regional energy data.
• Collecting meter point level gas consumption data from the newly reorganised gas distribution network.
