Energy Efficiency Indicators

The Energy Efficiency Indicators database contains annual data from 2000 covering end use energy consumption by energy product, end use carbon emissions, and associated indicators across four sectors of final consumption (residential, services, industry and transport) for the IEA member countries and beyond. The database includes the full disaggregation available of for all the years between 2000 and 2020. The indicators are computed by using key sectorial activity data, for example, passenger kilometre energy intensity by mode/vehicle type (MJ/pkm).

Since the 2021 edition, the database excel version has a new user-oriented design, with interactive charts. It also features decomposition analyses to show the impact of different drivers (e.g. activity, structure and efficiency) on consumption trends.

A free demo and availability file (see below) contains data for selected years and countries, mirroring the structure of the full database and providing detailed information about the available data. Additionally a free version of the database (Highlights) contains data for selected end-uses and years, with associated indicators indexed to the year 2000.

Finally, the national data collection practices contains methodologies to collect data on energy end-uses across sectors. The new guide to designing a national roadmap on demand-side data and energy efficiency indicators provides options and good practices for the collection and development of such datasets at the national level.
