International Energy Agency World Energy Statistics, 1960-2008

The International Energy Agency (IEA) datasets published by the Energy Statistics Division (ESD) contain annual and quarterly time series data from 1960 onwards on energy production, trade, stocks, transformation, consumption, prices and taxes as well as on greenhouse gas emissions for over the 30 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Member countries and over 100 non-OECD countries worldwide. In OECD Member countries the data are collected by official bodies (most often the national statistics office in each country) from firms, government agencies and industry organisations and are then reported to the IEA using questionnaires to ensure international comparability. In non-OECD countries the data are collected directly from government and industry contacts and from national publications. The IEA World Energy Statistics is a compilation of the data in the following two databases: Energy Statistics of OECD Countries: This database contains basic energy statistics for 30 OECD countries and six regions. Data are provided for energy supply and consumption in original units (1,000 metric tons, terajoules and gigawatt hours) for various types of coal, oil, gas, renewables and waste, as well as for electricity and heat. Definitions of products and flows, explanatory notes on the individual country data and net calorific values are also included. In general, data are available for 1960 onwards. This database is updated by the IEA in May each year. Energy Statistics of Non-OECD Countries: This database contains basic energy statistics for over 100 non-OECD countries and eleven regions. Data are provided for energy supply and consumption in original units (1,000 metric tons, terajoules and gigawatt hours) for various types of coal, oil, gas, renewables and waste, as well as for electricity and heat. Definitions of products and flows, explanatory notes on the individual country data and net calorific values are also included. Moreover, oil demand by product is given in tonnes and barrels per day. In general, data are available from 1971. This database is updated by the IEA in September each year. This database was first made available by ESDS International in August 2009 and is updated annually. The ESDS International web site includes further information on its IEA World Energy Balances database, including a database description and details of latest database updates.
