Table explanation


This table shows the consumption of energy of companies broken down by branche based on the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC 2008). Consumption of energy can calculated in two ways. First from a consumption perspective. Consumption is final energy consumption plus non-energy use plus net energy transformation. The latter is the amount of energy lost during the transformation of energy commodities. Second from a supply perspective. Energy consumption is indigenous production plus supply minus delivery of energy plus stock change. The result of these two calculation perspectives is the same. The table also shows energy transformation input (the amount of energy used to produce other energy commodities) and energy transformation output (the amount of energy transformed from another energy commodity).

Description topics

From consumption
Calculated from consumption energy consumption is final energy consumption plus non-energy use plus net energy transformation.
Total energy consumption
The amount of energy used by companies, households and transport in the Netherlands. Energy can be used
- for transformation into other energy commodities, this is input minus the energy produced.
- as final consumption.

Energy consumption is final energy consumption plus non-energy use plus net energy transformation.
Final energy consumption
Final consumption of energy. No useful energy commodity remains.

Examples are the combustion of natural gas in boilers, household electricity consumption and the consumption of motor fuels for transport.
Non-energy use
Use of an energy commodity for a product that is not energy. The energy used for the production process remains in the product. E.g. use of oil for the production of plastics, or natural gas for fertilisers.
Energy transformation
Transformation of one energy commodity into another. This may be a transformation from a fuel into heat or power. It may also be a physical processing of one fuel into another, like the transformation of crude oil into motor gasoline.
Net energy transformation
The difference between transformation input and transformation output.

Net energy transformation is the sum of:
- Electricity/CHP transformation
- Other transformation.

For primary energy commodities, like natural gas and coal, net transformation is always positive. For secondary energy commodities, like electricity or gasoline it is always negative. Obviously, the output for these commodities is higher than the input. For the total of energy commodities, this is the amount of energy lost during the transformation of energy commodities.
Energy transformation input
The amount of energy used to produce other energy commodities. This may be a transformation from a fuel into heat or power. It may also be a physical processing of one fuel into another, like the transformation of crude oil into motor gasoline.
Energy transformation output (-)
The amount of energy transformed from another energy commodity. This may be heat or power made from another fuel. It may also be the production of a fuel by a physical processing of another fuel, e.g. production of motor gasoline from crude oil.
From supply
Calculated from supply energy consumption is indigenous production plus supply of energy minus delivery of energy plus stock change.
Total energy consumption
The amount of energy used by companies, households and transport in the Netherlands. Energy can be used
- for transformation into other energy commodities, this is input minus the energy produced.
- as final consumption.

Energy consumption is indigenous production plus supply of energy minus delivery of energy plus stock change.
Supply of energy
Energy imported, bought or received in the Netherlands.
Delivery of energy (-)
Energy exported, sold or delivered in the Netherlands.
