Multi-yearly enterprise statistics - purchases of energy products (NACE Rev. 1.1, C, D, F, from 1999 onwards) methods, notes and classification

DATA_DESCR SBS series on Purchases of energy products in industry are closely related to other SBS domains for which separate metadata files have been compiled (See annex at the bottom of the page). They cover the NACE Rev 1.1 sections C and D. The information has been collected once every two years (odd numbered years). Several characteristics on Purchases of energy products in industry have been defined. From 1997 till 2001 an extended series of characteristics was used, but the availability was limited, as not all EU member states have collected the data. 20 21 0 Purchases of hard coal 20 22 0 Purchases of coke 20 23 0 Purchases of patent fuels 20 24 0 Purchases of gas oil 20 25 0 Purchases of heavy fuel oil 20 26 0 Purchases of other petroleum products 20 27 0 Purchases of natural gas 20 28 0 Purchases of derived gas 20 29 0 Purchases of renewable energy sources 20 30 0 Purchases of heat 20 31 0 Purchases of electricity Since 2003, a more restricted set of characteristics is used: 20 11 1 Purchases of solid fuels 20 11 2 Purchases of petroleum products 20 11 3 Purchases of natural and derived gas 20 11 4 Purchases of renewable energy sources 20 11 5 Purchases of heat 20 11 6 Purchases of electricity The perspective is the energy cost: therefore the value of all purchases is collected. There isn't any information available on the quantities purchased.

CLASS_SYSTEM National data are broken down at the detailed (4-digit) level of the Statistical Classification of Economic Activities in the European Community (NACE Rev.1 until 2001, and NACE Rev. 1.1 since 2002). Regional data are broken down according to the NUTS-2 classification, generally combined with a NACE division (2 digits) level activity detail (but a more detailed NACE 3-digit group level activity breakdown for the trade sector). Purchases of energy products series are broken down by NACE division (2 digits) level. More information on these nomenclatures is found on the appropriate ESTAT website RAMON. The detailed overview of the breakdowns by annex and series, is found in a Commission Regulation N° 2701/98 and amended by Commission Regulation N°1614/2002 (which contains the list of newly created characteristics corresponding to the simplified breakdown of energy products) and by Commission Regulation 1669/2003.

STAT_CONC_DEF Structural Business Statistics (SBS) describe the economy through the observation of the activity of units engaged in an economic activity. The Purchases of energy products series answer questions such as: Which energy products are bought in this economic activity and how much is spent on their purchase? The SBS characteristics are defined in Commission Regulation No 2700/98 but were amended by Commission Regulation No 1670/2003. These regulations cover all business demographic, employment and monetary characteristics as well as indicators consisting of ratios of monetary variables or per head values. "Purchases of energy products" variables: (coded as 20 xx x) o Total purchases of energy products (20 11 0) o Purchases of solid fuels (20 11 1) o Purchases of petroleum products (20 11 2) o Purchases of natural and derived gas (20 11 3) o Purchases of renewable energy sources (20 11 4) o Purchases of heat (20 11 5) o Purchases of electricity (20 11 6) SBS consists of a horizontal module (Annex 1), including a limited set of basic statistics for all market activities. Six sector-specific annexes cover a more extended list of sector-specific characteristics. The sector-specific annexes are: industry (Annex 2), distributive trades (Annex 3), construction (Annex 4), insurance services (Annex 5), credit institutions (Annex 6) and pension funds (Annex 7). The detailed overview of the availability of characteristics by sector is found in a Commission Regulation No 2701/98, this regulation has been amended by Commission Regulation N°1614/2002 (which contains the enumeration of the new characteristics, corresponding to the simplified breakdown of energy products) and by Commission Regulation 1669/2003.

STAT_UNIT National data and data broken down by size class of number of persons employed both refer to enterprises. The enterprise is the smallest combination of legal units that is an organisational unit producing goods or services, which benefits from a certain degree of autonomy in decision-making, especially for the allocation of its current resources. An enterprise carries out one or more activities at one or more locations. An enterprise may be a sole legal unit. Regional data refer to local units. The local unit is an enterprise or part thereof (e.g. a workshop, factory, warehouse, office, mine or depot) situated in a geographically identified place. At or from this place economic activity is carried out for which - save for certain exceptions - one or more persons work (even if only part-time) for one and the same enterprise. For detailed information on statistical units, please see either Chapter 3 of the Eurostat Manual of Business Statistics Business or the 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 (Official Journal of the European Communities No L 076, 30/03/1993, p. 1), Section III of 15.03.1993 on the statistical units for the observation and analysis of the production system in the Community Could you please update the respective hyperlinks?

STAT_POP The SBS regulation covers NACE Rev.1.1 sections C to K, which broadly speaking covers Market activities.

REF_AREA The data category covers EU27, Norway and Switzerland. Not only country specific data are disseminated but European aggregates as well.

BASE_PER Annual data are requested. Some series with mostly specialist information on a specific sector, which is burdensome to collect, are covered on a multi-annual basis.

UNIT_MEASURE Purchases are given in millions of euro. To be checked and corrected if necessary.
