Table explanation


This table shows the supply, transformation and the consumption of energy in a balance sheet. Energy is released - among other things - during the combustion of for example natural gas, petroleum, hard coal and biofuels. Energy can also be obtained from electricity or heat, or extracted from natural resources, e.g. wind or solar energy. In energy statistics all these sources of energy are known as energy commodities.

The supply side of the balance sheet includes indigenous production of energy, imports and exports and stock changes. For energy transformation, the table gives figures both on the transformation input (energy used to make other energy commodities) and the transformation output (energy made from other energy commodities) of energy commodities. The consumption side shows the consumption of energy for transformation in other energy commodities or as final consumption.

The energy balance describes the situation for the five main sectors, i.e. energy sector, industry (non energy), transport, private households and agriculture, fishing and services and many sub sectors. There is a difference between the energy balance sheet of the Netherlands and the energy balance sheet by sector. Imports and exports by sector are not known. The supply and deliveries by sector are known. The energy balance sheet shows net supply and deliveries. This equals net imports, exports and bunkers.

Figures refer to companies, institutions, private households and transport. Companies and institutions are broken down by branche based on the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC 2008). Sectors starting with a letter or number are SIC 2008 sectors.

Data available:
From 1995 up to and including 2013

Status of the figures:
All figures up to 2013 are definite.

Changes as of 28 July 2015:
None, this table has been discontinued, because the figures have been revised for all years.
The successor of this table is 'Energy balance sheet; supply, transformation and consumption'. See section 3.

When will new figures be published?
Not applicable.

Note:
With the publication of revised provisional annual figures the underlying monthly balance sheets retain their provisional character. Monthly balance sheets of energy commodities natural gas, hard coal, electricity, petroleum products, crude and motor fuels have been published in separate StatLine tables (see 3. Links to relevant tables and symbols). Upon publication of the definite annual energy balance sheet the monthly balance sheets will be definite.

Description topics

Energy commodities petajoule
An energy commodity is energy, and may take the form of a fuel, heat or power. A petajoule (PJ) equals 1,000,000,000,000,000 joules (10 to the power of 15). A joule is a unit of energy equivalent to 0.24 calories. A PJ is equivalent to 31.6 million cubic meters of natural gas or 278 million kilowatt-hours of electricity.
Crude and petroleum products
Liquid fossil fuel containing of chains of hydrocarbons. Crude oil is extracted from nature. In refineries, crude oil is transformed into various petroleum products.
Crude
Goods used as feedstocks in refineries; mainly crude oil and natural gas liquids. Includes additives, e.g. biofuels for road transport, which are added to modify fuel properties and/or to reduce CO2 emissions.
Crude oil
A mineral oil of natural origin consisting of hydrocarbons and various impurities like sulphur. Under normal pressure and temperature crude oil is liquid. Physical properties such as density and viscosity are very variable.
Petroleum products
Products made of crude oil or other hydrocarbons available for consumption. The most familiar products are the fuels lpg, motor gasoline and gas/dieseloil. Also includes products not used as an energy commodity, but used as feedstock or admixture. E.g. are white spirit, lubricants and bitumen (asphalt).
Gas/diesel oil
Heavy oil used as fuel in diesel engines and heating installations. The distillation range lies between 180 and 380 degrees Celsius. Gasoil is the most common name for this product, however the term diesel oil is often used due to the use in diesel engines. This product includes heating gasoil of which the distillation range goes up to 540 degrees Celsius.
Heavy fuel oil
Heavy oil which remains after the distillation in the refinery. This oil is for use mainly in cross-border shipping (bunkers), but also as fuel in industry and production of electricity and heat.
Energy commodities physical units
An energy commodity is energy, and may take the form of a fuel, heat or power. Energy commodities without known physical unit are presented in the unit of joules.
