1. Implementing Physical Energy Flow Accounts in the European Statistical System (ESS)Arturo de la FuenteEurostat1
2. Introduction (historical overview)2009: Agreement to develop SEEA-type energy accounts in the European Statistical System (ESS)2009-2010: Discussion paper Eurostat Working Group on Environmental Accounts, choices taken:start with physical flow accountsfull-articulated framework of physical supply and use tables (PSUT)detailed industry breakdown (NACE A*64 = same as IOTs)2010-2014:Task force developed PEFA questionnaire and conceptual guidelines (closely based on SEEA-CF and draft SEEA-Energy)2
3. Set of tables in PEFA-questionnaire 20173
4. Introduction (historical overview)2012: decision to develop PEFA-Builder= IT-tool populating PEFA-questionnaire from already existing energy statistics (5 Annual Energy Questionnaires)= highly complex algorithms !2012-2014: EU legal base2014: draft PEFA Manual2014-2016: Voluntary data collections (response rate circa 50%) = learning process2017: first mandatory data collection4
5. Lessons learnt from implementation in EU:Implementation took 8 years!Yet, not all countries established PEFAQuality has to improve in the coming yearsMany conceptual and methodological issues (beyond SEEA) needed to be clarified and settledPEFA-Builder matured gradually accommodating 'wishes' from countriesusing this IT-tool requires expert knowledge5
6. Lessons learnt from implementation in EU:Policy use of PEFA needs to be sharpened:Currently, energy and climate policy making can widely be informed by energy statisticsWhat is the added value of PEFA? – further discussion needed on the potential of PEFA indicatorsMore integrated environmental-economic applications (including monetary accounts and air emissions accounts)e.g. structural decomposition analysisNeeded: same detailed industry breakdown as in national accounts (IOTs)6
