Department of Economic and Social Affairs
The Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations is a vital
interface between global policies in the economic, social and environmental
spheres and national action. The Department works in three main interlinked
areas: (i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social
and environmental data and information on which United Nations Member
States draw to review common problems and to take stock of policy options;
(ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many intergovernmental
bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging global
challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the ways and means
of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and
summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical
assistance, helps build national capacities.

Introduction
This publication is the third in a series of pocketbook compilations on energy
statistics designed to highlight the availability of data on various aspects of
energy production, transformation and use and its linkages to other key
statistics. Energy is central to the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for
Sustainable Development and the Paris Agreement on climate change,
and sound energy statistics are the basis for the reliable measurement of
progress, thereby assisting the formulation of policy measures to achieve
international and national sustainable development goals.

The information in this publication is primarily based on the energy data


collection carried out by the Energy Statistics Section of the United Nations
Statistics Division (UNSD). The data are available in the 2017 editions of the
Energy Statistics Yearbook, the Energy Balances, and the Electricity Profiles,
three annual UNSD publications that present energy data in basic indicator
formats, as well as formats that show a more detailed, yet number-heavy,
picture of production, trade, transformation and consumption of energy
products in more than 200 countries and territories.

The present publication aims at providing additional information by


highlighting key indicators and using different visualizations to also show
developments, dependencies and distributions in a way that standard
data tables cannot convey.

More information about the data collection process, as well as the three
publications underlying the information in this pocketbook, are available at
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/questionnaire/.

Acknowledgements
This publication has been compiled by the Energy Statistics Section of UNSD,

FACTS AND FIGURES


World total energy supply1 (TES) increased by 62.0% from 1990 to 2017,
reaching 580 EJ. This increase was driven by Asia, responsible for 83.5%
of the world growth in the period. Chinese TES alone more than
quadrupled, accounting for over a fifth of world TES in 2017. The
European share of world TES almost halved from 35.3% in 1990 to 18.5%
in 2017, with an absolute drop of 19 EJ. The United States, whose share
of world TES dropped by 6.9 percentage points since 1990 to reach
15.6% in 2017, showed an absolute increase in TES of 9.9 EJ during this
period. International bunkers were equal to 16.8 EJ in 2017
(accounting for 2.9% of world TES), almost doubling from 1990.

FACTS AND FIGURES


World primary energy production almost reached 582 EJ in 2017, a 2.0%
increase over 2016 and a 61% increase compared to 1990 (which translates into
an average compounded yearly growth of 1.8%). Oil, coal and natural gas, in
this order, are the largest energy sources, together representing 82% of total
primary energy production, a combined share that barely changed since 1990.
A significant share of 2017 primary energy production occurred in a handful of
countries:
- China and the United States produced more than half of all primary coal
(56%), with China alone producing 46% of the world coal;
- The United States topped the oil producers in 2017, rising from third in 2016. The
three biggest producers of oil (United States, Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia),
produced more than a third of all primary oil (38%) in 2017;
- Five natural gas producers (United States, Russian Federation, Iran, Canada
and Qatar) produced more than half of all natural gas (54%).

FACTS AND FIGURES


World electricity generation grew 114% from 1990 to 2017, reaching
about 25,600 TWh in 2017. The largest absolute growth from 1990 to 2017
was observed for electricity generated from coal (5,315 TWh or +120%)
and natural gas (4,131 TWh or +231%) while the fastest growth was
visible for electricity generated from solar, wind and other sources4
(+2,673% or 1,644 TWh). In 2017, about 3/4 of all electricity was
generated from non-renewable sources5, mainly from non-renewable
thermal (65% or 16,600 TWh) and nuclear sources (10% or 2,633 TWh).
However, renewable electricity accounted for 57% of global electricity
capacity additions over the past seven years, growing to 2,314 GW in
2017 and reaching 1/3 of total electricity capacity.

FACTS AND FIGURES


World total final consumption8 (TFC) amounted to almost 404 EJ in 2017,
showing an increase just shy of 60% compared to 1990. Energy use in
the industry and transport sectors dominated TFC in 2017, accounting in
total for around 57% of TFC.
In 2017, almost 78% of coal TFC (or 32 EJ) occurred in the industry sector,
while over 61% of oil TFC (almost 104 EJ) was used for transportation.
Most of natural gas TFC happened in industry (almost 37% or 23 EJ) and
households (almost 30% or 19 EJ). The largest share of electricity end use
was accounted for by the industry sector (42% of all electricity).
Households were the major users of biofuels and waste, accounting for
almost 60% of all TFC of these energy sources, and for 30% of all
household TFC.

Products and flows


All the definitions of products and flows are based on the International
Recommendations for Energy Statistics (IRES) available at:
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/methodology/ires. Particularly for products,
the definitions come from the Standard International Energy Product Classification
(SIEC) contained in IRES. A more concise version of these definitions can be
found in the Energy Balances publication under the chapter "Concepts
and Definitions". The Energy Balances publication is available at:
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/pubs/balance.
Please note that in the present publication the product coal includes peat unless
otherwise specified; data for natural gas are expressed on an NCV basis (as are
data for all other products); energy sources (i.e. coal, oil, natural gas, biofuels and
waste, and electricity and heat) generally refer to both primary and secondary
products, with the exception of the chapter on primary energy production.
Chapter: Total energy supply
International aviation and marine bunkers are recorded separately due to their
importance, e.g. for the estimation of greenhouse gas emissions. At the world level,
bunkers are classified as part of transport final consumption and they are included
in the world total energy supply; however, at the country and regional levels,
bunkers are not accounted for as final consumption because they pertain to more
than one country or region and are therefore subtracted from total energy supply.
Being excluded from regional TES, international bunkers are shown as a separate
category in charts 4 and 6 and in tables 5 and 7 to provide a complete overview
of the world total energy supply.
Total energy supply per capita is calculated by dividing total energy supply by
population.
Energy intensity is calculated by dividing total energy supply by GDP, PPP (constant
2011 international $). It corresponds to SDG indicator 7.3.1.
Chapter: Primary energy production
Energy self-sufficiency is calculated as the ratio between primary energy
production and total energy supply expressed in percentage.
The categories other primary oil (chart 27 and table 28) refer to additives and
oxygenates, and other hydrocarbons.
The category waste (chart 33 and table 34) refers to other vegetable material and
residues (vegetal waste), animal waste, industrial waste and municipal waste.

United Nations Statistics Division 69


2020 Energy Statistics Pocketbook

The category other biofuels (chart 33 and table 34) refers to biogasoline, biodiesel,
biogases, bio jet kerosene, bagasse, black liquor and other liquid biofuels as
defined in SIEC (for definitions, see section “Products and flows” above).
Chapter: Electricity
Electricity generation per capita is calculated by dividing electricity production by
population.
Electricity capacity is the abbreviated form for the Net Maximum Electrical
Capacity, which in turn is defined as the maximum active power that can be
supplied continuously, with all plants running, at the point of outlet (i.e., after taking
the power supplies for the station auxiliaries and allowing for the losses in those
transformers considered integral to the station). For annual data, it is considered as
measured at the end of the reference year.
Utilization of electricity capacity is calculated by dividing electricity production by
electricity capacity and then by the total number of hours in a year. It shows a
percentage of theoretical maximal utilization; since the capacity is measured on a
net basis and the production on a gross basis, there is a small upwards bias in this
utilization indicator.
The category solar, wind and other sources (Facts and figures box, chart 38 and
table 39) refers to solar, wind, geothermal, chemical heat, tide, wave and marine
and other non-specified sources.
Both the category total renewables (table 43 and 47 and chart 46) and the
category renewable sources (tables 49 and 51 and chart 50) refer to hydro, wind,
solar, geothermal, tide, wave, marine, as well as thermal from combustible
renewables.
The category non-renewable sources (tables 49 and 51 and chart 50) refers to
thermal from non-renewable fuels, nuclear and other non-specified net installed
capacities.
Chapter: Refinery output
Refinery output refers to the total amount of oil products produced in refineries
(naphtha, aviation gasoline, motor gasoline, gasoline-type jet fuel, kerosene-type
jet fuel, other kerosene, gas/diesel oil, fuel oil, refinery gas, ethane, LPG, white spirit
and SBP industrial spirits, lubricants, paraffin waxes, petroleum coke, bitumen,
refinery feedstocks, and other oil products not elsewhere classified).
Refinery input refers to the amount of oil (conventional crude oil, natural gas liquids,
feedstocks, other hydrocarbons, and additives and oxygenates) that has entered
the refinery process.

70 United Nations Statistics Division


2020 Energy Statistics Pocketbook

Refinery capacity is the theoretical maximum annualized capacity of crude oil


refineries available for operation at the end of the reference year.
The category others (chart 62 and table 63) refers to refinery gas, ethane, LPG,
white spirit and SBP industrial spirits, lubricants, paraffin waxes, petroleum coke,
bitumen, refinery feedstocks, and other oil products not elsewhere classified. The
category gasolines refers to aviation gasoline, motor gasoline and gasoline-type jet
fuel; the category kerosenes refers to kerosene-type jet fuel and other kerosene.
Fuel quantities used in international aviation and marine bunkers are included in the
world oil supply (chart 66 and table 67); conversely, bunkers are excluded from the
oil supply for the shown countries.
The different approach adopted in treating international bunkers at the world level
as opposed to the country level determines a divergence between the world oil
supply and the sum of the country values in table 67.
Chapter: Total final consumption
Total final consumption per capita is calculated by dividing total final consumption
by population.
Total final consumption refers to the consumption of energy products by end users,
which is the last stage of energy flows captured in energy statistics. As such, TFC
excludes energy products that are transformed into secondary energy products.
For example, fuels used for electricity generation are not accounted directly in TFC,
but accounted for indirectly as final electricity consumption. For coal specifically,
more than 60% of TES in 2017 is used as input for electricity generation worldwide.
International aviation and marine bunkers are classified as part of final consumption
at the world level but not at the country and regional levels. Not being included in
the total final consumption at the regional level, international bunkers are shown as
a separate category in charts 69 and 71 and in tables 70 and 72 to provide a
complete overview of world final energy consumption.
The different approach adopted in treating international bunkers at the world level
as opposed to the country level determines a divergence between the world TFC
and the sum of the country values in table 78.
The category other (chart 75 and table 76) refers to agriculture, forestry and fishing,
commerce and public services, and to other non-specified consumers. The
categories industry, transport, households and other do not include non-energy use
in these sectors.

United Nations Statistics Division 71


2020 Energy Statistics Pocketbook

Renewable energy share in total final energy consumption (map 77 and table 78)
refers to renewables directly consumed as energy products, as well as final
consumption of electricity and heat attributed to renewable sources, including
combustible renewables. It corresponds to SDG indicator 7.2.1.
Chapter: Energy balances
In the regional balances, the category total energy supply excludes international
aviation and marine bunkers, whereas in the world balance international bunkers
are treated as consumption for transportation purposes.
Country energy balances for 2016 and 2017 are available in the Energy Balances
publication (https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/pubs/balance).
The category of which: renewables follows the convention used in the Energy Balances
publication available at: https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/pubs/balance and
therefore includes only directly identifiable renewable energy. As a result, no part of
imports and exports of heat or electricity, nor their consumption, losses or own use,
is considered as renewable, which may lead to differences with values presented
in other chapters.
Chapter: Energy indicators
The category total energy supply excludes international aviation and marine
bunkers at the country and regional levels, as defined by the international
methodology set forth in IRES.
Energy statistics for American Samoa, Guam, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Jersey,
Liechtenstein, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, United States Virgin Islands are
partially covered by another country (see geographical notes at:
https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/pubs/yearbook/2017/05gn.pdf). Indicators
for these areas, therefore, should be interpreted with caution.
Energy use (TES) per capita is calculated by dividing total energy supply by
population.
Energy intensity is calculated by dividing total energy supply by GDP, PPP (constant
2011 international $). It corresponds to SDG indicator 7.3.1.
Self-sufficiency is calculated as the ratio between primary energy production and
total energy supply expressed in percentage.
Renewable energy share in total final energy consumption refers to renewables
directly consumed as energy products, as well as final consumption of electricity
and heat attributed to renewable sources, including combustible renewables. It
corresponds to SDG indicator 7.2.1.

The Energy Statistics Pocketbook highlights the
availability of data on various aspects of energy
production, transformation and use and its linkages to
other key statistics. It uses visual representations of
key energy indicators to facilitate the understanding
of the current state and developments in the energy
sector. Energy is central to the achievement of the
2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the
Paris Agreement on climate change, and sound energy
statistics are the basis for the reliable measurement
of progress, thereby assisting the formulation of
policy measures to achieve international and national
sustainable development goals.
