Energy
The aim of energy management is to supply energy, vital to the society and the economy, to the different sectors of use. Energy management statistics include statistics on energy production and use, the energy balance, the security of supply, the energy market, energy trade, energy efficiency and renewable energy sources.

The energy consumption declined in the first half of 2022
In the first half of 2022, domestic energy use was mixed compared to a year earlier, with energy demand increasing in January and March partly due to colder weather, and decreasing in the other months, most notably in February. Overall consumption (579 PJ) was 0.4% below last year, when consumption reached a multi-year high.
Domestic electricity consumption hit a record high in 2021
The dynamic growth of domestic electricity consumption in 2020 has come to a halt due to pandemic restrictions and plant shutdowns. In 2021, however, domestic consumption rose to an all-time high of 43.9 billion kWh, while exports and low-weighted power plant self-consumption and grid losses declined compared to a year earlier. Domestic generation accounted for 64% of consumption and imports for 36%.
