Electricity is mainly produced from the transformation of fossil fuels, biomass and of nuclear energy and renewable energy. By energy commodity figures are given on the production of electricity and the released useful used heat, such as used for heating of buildings or greenhouses. Central and decentral production of electricity and heat is distinguished. The centrally coordinated production of electricity and heat is generated by plants that deliver to the national high voltage grid of electricity transmission operator TenneT. Decentrally produced electricity and heat is not produced centrally, such as by installations located in companies for which the production of electricity and heat is not the primary purpose. It also includes wind energy, solar energy and hydro power. Data available: From 1998 onwards Status of the figures: Figures up to and including 2015 are definite. Figures of 2016 are revised provisional. Figures of 2017 are provisional. Changes as of 12 July 2018: Figures for the central en decentral 'Co-firing of biomass' and 'Other energy commodities' used to be not available for reporting years 2014-2016, because the number of companies with co-firing was small and it may have been possible to relate these data to individual companies. Recently, Statistics Netherlands received permissions from the involved companies to publish the data. Therefore, this table now includes data for the mentioned types of energy for cells which contained dots before. Changes as of 6 July 2018: Provisional figures of 2017 have been added. When will new figures be published? Revised provisional figures 2017: December 2018. Revised figures 1998-2015: 2019.

Data cited at:  CBS StatLine databank https://opendata.cbs.nl/statline/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS Publication: Energy balance sheet; supply and consumption, sector https://opendata.cbs.nl/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS&tableId=83989eng&_theme=992 License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/   This table contains figures on the supply and consumption of energy broken down by sector and by energy commodity. The energy supply is equal to the indigenous production of energy plus the receipts minus the deliveries of energy plus the stock changes. Consumption of energy is equal to the sum of own use in the energy sector, distribution losses, final energy consumption, non-energy use and the total net energy transformation. For each sector, the supply of energy is equal to the consumption of energy. For some energy commodities, the total of the observed domestic deliveries is not exactly equal to the sum of the observed domestic receipts. For these energy commodities, a statistical difference arises that can not be attributed to a sector. The breakdown into sectors follows mainly the classification as is customary in international energy statistics. This classification is based on functions of various sectors in the energy system and for several break downs on the international Standard Industrial Classification. There are two main sectors: the energy sector (companies with main activity indigenous production or transformation of energy) and energy consumers (other companies, vehicles and dwellings). In accordance with international conventions, own use of energy companies only occurs within the energy sector and final energy consumption only for energy consumers. In addition to a breakdown by sector, there is also a breakdown by energy commodity, such as coal, various petroleum products, natural gas, renewable energy, electricity and heat. The definitions used in this table are exactly in line with the definitions in the Energy Balance table; supply, transformation and consumption. That table does not contain a breakdown by sector (excluding final energy consumption), but it does provide information about imports, exports and bunkering and also provides more detail about the energy commodities. Data available: From: 1990. Status of the figures: Figures up to and including 2016 are definite. Figures of 2017 are revised provisional. Changes as of 18 December 2018: In December 2018 the Energy balance has been revised and corrected, concerning the following items: 1. Energy consumption in the chemical industry has been corrected for the years 2012 up to and including 2017. The adjustment results from a correction in the underlying energy data of a few large chemical enterprises. The supplied data from these companies for energy statistics appeared not complete, because the demarcation of the companies was unclear. This incompleteness was discovered by comparing data supplied to Statistics Netherlands with data supplied to the ETS system and data supplied to environmental annual reports. A result of this correction is that final consumption of natural gas is on average 22 PJ higher for the years 2012 up to and including 2017, final consumption of refinery gas is on average 12 PJ higher and electricity consumption is 1 PJ higher. These corrections affect calculated emissions of carbon dioxide which on average are 1.3 Mton higher for the years 2012 up to and including 2017. 2. Non-energy consumption in the chemical industry for the years 1990 up to and including 2017 has been adjusted downwards. A large not plausible change in the use of non-energy consumption of one company triggered additional research on the data of this company considering historical capacity, the rate of utilisation of the capacity, the efficiency and the relation with a neighbouring company. Result of this research was mainly a decrease of the non-energy use and the imports of oil with on average 50 PJ per year. 3. For the years 2015 up to and including 2017 data on bunkers of heavy fuel oil were not plausible. Additional research resulted in improvement of underlying data and figures are now about 20 PJ lower for 2015 and 2016. 4. For coal transit to other countries and stock changes of trading companies have been eliminated from published data. The reasons for this is a request from Eurostat to interpret the statistical regulation in such way that imports only relate to coal for inland consumption. Consequently, the exports of coal is now zero. Coal consumption has not been adapted. 5. In the energy balance (supply and consumption) now three types of coal are distinguished for the years 1990 up to and including 2014. This was already the case for the more recent years. 6. For solar photovoltaic Statistics Netherlands introduced a new method using administrative data. Consequently, the data for the production of solar photovoltaic have been adapted from 2012 onwards. In addition there is improved insight in which part of the solar photovoltaic is consumed by the producers resulting in an increased final consumption of electricity, mainly in the services sector, up to 1 PJ in 2017. 7. Within renewable energy a new energy commodity has been added: ambient energy. This is energy from below the soil surface, the atmosphere or surface water extracted by heat pumps. This adaptation follows Eurostat as a consequence of the adaptation of the EU regulation on energy statistics. The amount of ambient energy, produced and consumed in the sectors services, households and agriculture increases from almost negligible to 7 PJ in 2017. 8. Electricity consumption of the coke-oven plants has been shifted from input for transformations to own use to better follow the Eurostat method. Further the aggregate 'Total other energy commodities' and the sector 'Water supply, waste management unknown' have been added. Changes as of 29 June 2018: Revised provisional figures of 2017 have been added. Changes as of 25 April 2018: Figures on the receipts of electricity and natural gas for 1990 to 2009 in the sub-sectors of the services have been corrected. Previously there were numbers, now there are dots (not available). For the years in question, the data is only available to a limited number of companies at this level of detail and therefore can not be published. Changes as of 16 April 2018: The sequence of the renewable energy commodities has been made the same as the sequence in the renewable energy statistics. Changes as of 11 April 2018: - The years 1990 up to and including 2009 have been added. - The use of the symbols '.' and 'Empty cell' for period 2010 up to and including 2016 have been adjusted in G-S, U Services and 20-21 20-21 Chemistry and pharmaceuticals. When will new figures be published? Revised provisional figures: June/July and December of the following year. Definite figures: December of the second following year.

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, net imports and exports and net stock changes. This is mentioned primary energy supply, because this is the amount of energy available for transformation or consumption in the country. For energy transformation, the table gives figures on the transformation input (amount of energy used to make other energy commodities), the transformation output (amount of energy made from other energy commodities) and net energy transformation. The latter is the amount of energy lost during the transformation of energy commodities. Then the energy balance sheet shows the final consumption of energy. First, it refers to the own use of the energy sector and distribution losses. After deduction of these amounts remains the final consumption of energy customers. This comprises the final energy consumption and non-energy use. The final energy consumption is the energy consumers utilize for energy purposes. It is specified for successively industry, transport and other customers, broken down into various sub-sectors. The last form of energy is the non-energy use. This is the use of an energy commodity for a product that is not energy. Data available: From 1946. Status of the figures: All figures up to and including 2016 are definite. Figures of 2017 are revised provisional. Changes as of 18 December 2018: In December 2018 the Energy balance has been revised and corrected, concerning the following items: 1.

Electricity consumption of the coke-oven plants has been shifted from input for transformations to own use to better follow the Eurostat method. Further the energy commodities 'Wind energy on shore', 'Wind energy off shore' and 'Total other energy commodities' have been added. Changes as of 2 July 2018: - Symbol of final energy consumption of electricity for other sectors non specified for period 1946 up to and including 1989 have been changed, a '.' is replaced with an 'empty cell' which means in this table nill. - Final energy consumption of natural gas, electricity and heat of Maufacture of Textile and leather for reporting year 2015 have been added. Changes as of 29 June 2018: Revised provisional figures of 2017 have been added. Changes as of 14 June 2018: - For period 1946 up to and including 2017 energy commodities anthracite, coke coal, steam coal, patent fuel and gas works gas have been added. - Based on historical sources and the electricity balance sheet figures of supply side of electricity for period 1946 up to and including 1989 have been revised and/or added. Changes as of 23 March 2018: - Figures for 2015 and 2016 have been adjusted - The use of the symbols '.' and 'Empty cell' for period 1946 up to and including 1989 have been adjusted. - Final energy consumption of electricity for rail transportation have been added for 1975 up to and including 1989. - The topic 'Statistical differences' have been moved according to European definitions. - Figures for 1990 up to and including 2014 have been revised. See section 4 for more information. Changes as of 27 December 2017: Figures for 2015 and 2016 have been adjusted Figures for 1990 up to and including 2014 have been revised. See section 4 for more information. The subject net imports has been added. Figures for 1946 up to and including 1989 have been added. When will new figures be published? Revised provisional figures: June/July of the following year. Definite figures: December of the second following year.

Data cited at:  CBS StatLine databank https://opendata.cbs.nl/statline/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS Publication: Energy consumption private dwellings; type of dwelling and regions https://opendata.cbs.nl/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS&tableId=81528ENG&_theme=1049 License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/   This table shows regional figures on the average consumption of energy (natural gas and electricity) of private dwellings broken down by type of dwelling and ownership for Nederland, group of provinces, provinces and municipalities. Besides, for total dwellings only, the share of heat distribution (district heating) has been added, because this is relevant for the interpretation of the height of the average consumption of natural gas. Data available from: 2010 Status of the figures: All figures from 2010 - 2016 are definite. Figures of 2017 are provisional. Changes as of 5 September 2018: Provisional figures of 2017 has been added. Group of provinces West-Nederland, G4 excluded; Extra-Regio and Abroad have been removed. When will new figures be published? Provisional figures: 4th quarter of the succeeding year. Definite figures: 4th quarter of the second succeeding year.

This table contains figures on the average consumption of electricity and natural gas per m2 floor area and by construction period for different types of buildings used in the services sector. Only data on electricity and gas delivered through the public grid are included. The consumption of natural gas has been corrected for temperature effects. Energy intensities are often used to evaluate policies and for benchmarking. Data are based on year 2012. Status of the figures: The status of the figures is definite. Changes as of 11 March 2016: No changes, this is a new table. When will new figures be published? Energy intensities do not change very quickly over time. Though gas intensities have been corrected for temperature, it is not possible to completely remove all temperature effects on gas intensities To limit the effect of temperature on gas intensities, the energy intensities have been published for the year 2012. The year 2012 was an average year when looking to temperature.

Data cited at:  CBS StatLine databank https://opendata.cbs.nl/statline/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS Publication: Environmental accounts; energy use by companies and households https://opendata.cbs.nl/portal.html?_la=en&_catalog=CBS&tableId=82238ENG&_theme=1037 License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/   The energy accounts show how much energy flows into the Dutch economy (imports and domestic production) and how much is used by the Dutch economy (domestic use and exports). It also presents the energy that flows within the economy. The energy accounts distinguishes between energy products and users/producers of energy. They can be used to investigate where the economy gets its energy from and what it uses it for, which sector uses the most, how important imports are, and how efficiently the economy uses its energy. The energy accounts differentiates between gross and net use of energy. Net energy is further disaggregated into different types of energy use. Gross energy use is further disaggregated into energy that is extracted from the domestic environment and energy that is imported from third parties. Imported energy is further disaggregated into different groups of energy carriers. The table presents the consumption of different energy carriers and allocates them to various industries and households. The energy accounts originate from the energy balance and are part of the environmental accounts that are published on an annual base. The data in the environmental accounts correspond directly to the economic data in the national accounts. This allows for direct comparisons of economic statistics that are derived from the Dutch national economic accounts with the energy consumption figures. Furthermore, the energy accounts can be used to construct environmental indicators. For example, the energy accounts can be used to determine the use of different energy carriers in the Netherlands as a whole and for individual industries . The figures in the Dutch energy accounts are consistent with the concepts and definitions of the national accounts and may therefore deviate from figures in the Dutch energy balance. Data available from: 1995 Status of the figures: The figures in this table are for the last year provisional. The figures for the other years are final. To obtain a coherent and consistent time series, the complete time series are (re)calculated, such that the most recent information, in particular with respect to energy consumption, is included in the calculations. Changes as of september 29, 2014 The provisional figures for 2013 have been added. When are new figures published? New figures will be published by November, together with the appearance of the publication 'Environmental Accounts of the Netherlands'.

This table contains figures on the supply and consumption of biofuels and the amount of biofuels that are blended into ordinary petrol and diesel. There are also figures on the production capacity of biofuels. The figures are available both for the total biofuels and for the two types of biofuels used in road traffic and mobile equipment, namely biogasoline and biodiesel. The supply of biofuels on the domestic market is equal to the sum of production, the import balance (net import) and the stock movements of biofuels minus bunkers for transport abroad. The import balance also distinguishes between pure and blended biofuels. Consumption is equated with deliveries from oil companies to pumping stations in the Netherlands. For the most part, the deliveries are biofuels that have been blended into ordinary diesel and petrol and are therefore no longer recognizable as biofuels. Data available from: 2006, annually Status of the figures: This table provides final figures up to and including 2018. Changes as of April 22, 2020: None, this is a new table. This table is the successor to the table 'Liquid biofuels for transport; supply, consumption and blending, 2003-2018'. See section 3. When will new figures come: Provisional figures for the previous year are published in May each year. Revised provisional figures for the previous year are published in June each year. Final figures for the previous year appear in December each year.

This is energy from natural processes that is replenished constantly. This table expresses the use of renewable energy in three ways: 1. Gross final consumption 2. Avoided use of fossil energy 3. Avoided emissions of carbon dioxide Figures are presented in an absolute way, as wel as related to the total energy use or total emissions of carbon dioxide in the Netherlands. Avoiding the use of fossil energy and avoiding emissions of carbon dioxide are important underlying aims for stimulation the use of renewable energy. The figures are broken down into energy source/technique and into application (electricity, heat and transport). Data available from: 1990 Status of the figures: This table contains definite figures until 2016 and revised provisional figures as of 2017. Changes as of 23 August 2018: Figures on avoided use of fossil energy and avoided emissions of CO2 in 2016 and in 2017 for energy application heat have been corrected for the energy sources “total biomass” and “total energy sources”. The magnitude of the correction in both years was 4 PJ avoided use and 250 kton avoided emissions of CO2. Changes as of 5 july 2018: Figures on avoided use of fossil energy and avoided emissions of CO2 voor all energy applications have been corrected for the energy sources 'total biogas', 'total biomass' and 'total energy sources'. The magnitude of the correction was 4 PJ avoided use and 250 kton avoided emissions of CO2. Changes as of 1 May 2018: The underlying codes of the classifications used in this table have been adjusted. These are now in line with the standard codes set by Statistics Netherlands. The structure and data of the table are not adjusted. When will new figures be published? Provisional figures on the gross final consumption of renewable energy in broad outlines for the previous year are published each year in May. Revised provisional figures for the previous year appear each year in June, except for figures on shallow geothermal cold and shallow geothermal heat without heat pumps. In December all figures on the consumption of renewable energy in the previous year will be published. These figures will be definite in December. However, the figures on the share of total energy consumption in the Netherlands and about the avoided CO2 can still be changed by the availability of adjusted figures on total energy consumption and total CO2 emissions.
