  1. Energy in Ireland 1990 – 2004 Oireachtas Joint Committee on Communications, Marine and Natural Resources

  2. Energy Policy Statistical Support Unit (EPSSU) • Collect, process and publish energy statistics • Conduct statistical and economicanalyses of energy services and sustainable energy options • Contribute to the development and promulgation of appropriate sustainability indicators

  3. Economic, energy and CO2 emissions growth

  4. Total Primary Energy Requirement (TPER) by Fuel

  5. Energy Flow in 2004

  6. Electricity Generation 2004

  7. CO2 Emissions per kWh of Electricity Supplied

  8. “Upstream”CO2 emissions On-site CO2 emissions CO2 Emissions from Industry

  9. Transport emissions by mode

  10. Services energy use by fuel

  11. Residential energy use by fuel

  12. Energy Import Dependency

  13. Energy Exp / Direct Costs

  14. Energy Exp / Direct Costs - GVA

  15. Energy Exp / Direct Costs – CO2

  16. Sensitivity to price changes w.r.t. costs • 96% of industrial GVA (€34 billion) in 2001 was produced by enterprises spending less than 4% of their direct costs on energy. These account for 61% of enegy-related CO2 and 96% of industrial employment • 211 enterprises (4%) have energy costs in excess of 5% of their direct costs (34% of CO2 emissions). • 10 enterprises with energy bill greater than 20% of costs, account for 15% of energy expenditure, 18% of energy-related emissions, 0.5% of GVA and 0.5% of employment. • 97% of industrial GVA was generated by enterprises for which fuel costs represented no more than 2% of direct costs. A total 14 firms have a fuel to direct cost ratio of more than 10%. These 14 accounted for 34% of fuel related CO2 emissions.

  17. Renewable Energy Contribution to TPER

  18. Renewable Energy Contribution to Gross Electricity Consumption target 2010 13.2% 2004 5.1%

  19. Conclusion Energy growth decoupling from economic growth – efficiency (transport being the exception) CO2 emissions decoupling from energy growth – fuel switching Transport and Services the fastest growing sectors Import dependency at 87% The energy bill of most manufacturing companies represents a very small proportion of their cost base.
