Energy Conservation Indicators is a strategy to collapse power intake facts into their part components within the comparable approach as these that are as a result of annual climate fluctuations, company cycle, structural adjustments within the economic system and better power potency. this technique is utilized for the 1st time to all twelve Member international locations of the eu groups for the interval 1979 to 1985. It represents a device for a long term tracking of the efforts in the direction of the aim set by way of the Council of Ministers of the ecu neighborhood to accomplish a 20% development in depth of ultimate power call for among 1985 and 1995. additionally, it's utilized by the fee of the eu groups for issues concerning strength conservation guidelines for the group. the result of the research played confirmed that the aim set by way of the Council can't be reached if the present traits succeed within the future years. the explanations are the declining influence of structural alterations in the direction of much less energy-intensive creation and the expanding point of energy-consuming convenience within the residential and personal transportation sectors.

2 % per year between 1979 and 1983 and approx. 4 % per year during the subsequent period. The conclusion of the analysis is that improvements in energy efficiency played a negligible role in determining the TPE consumption during the whole period analysed. Distribution Losses of Grid-Based Energies The increasing demand for grid-based energies (electricity, natural gas, and district heating) increased the transportation and distribution losses. 7 %; see also Part I, Chap. 7). 3. Residential Indicators The residential sector consumed 28 % of total final energy demand in 1985.

1 % per year due to interfuel substitution between 1983 and 1985. 25 % per year (see Fig. 3). 3 % between 1983 and 1985. o Fuel savings realized by technical measures were offset by an increase in space heating consumption of EUR-12 in contrast to the previous period (see Fig. 3).

These reductions of the consumption at the final energy level, nevertheless, were responsible for additional primary energy consumption in the transformation sector, particularly for electricity production and distribution losses (see Chaps. 2 and 7). 24 Other Factors including Energy Efficiency Available data for EUR-12 did not enable us to separate exactly the effects of more rational energy use from other effects due to structural and technical changes not analysed.
