  1. Service Sector Energy Demand UKJonathan Stanley

  2. Classification of Sector • Public Administration, Government buildings, NHS, MOD, Education etc • Commercial, Financial & insurance, wholesalers, retailers, hotels, shops etc • Agriculture, farms, agricultural machinery, tractors, combine Harvesters etc

  3. Sector Highlights • In 2008 this sector contributed 12.8% of the total UK energy demand of 6841 PJ • In 2008 demand for this sector was 829 PJ up 6.64% from 1970 • The number of people employed in service sector (excluding agriculture) has increased from 16,527 in 1978 to 25,574 in 2008 (up 54%) • Between 1990 and 2008 private sector demand increased by 16 per cent. • Over the same period, output, measured as a contribution to the UK economy, nearly doubled. • Gas demand increased by 374% from 1970 to 2008 • Electricity demand increased by 156% from 1970 to 2008 • Coal demand decreased by 99.5% from 1970 to 2008 • Oil demand decreased by 84% from 1970 to 2008 • Consumption from Micro generated renewable energy up from 5.7 PJ to 7.74 PJ (34%) from 1988 to 2008

  6. Energy Intensity(Energy consumption per unit of output) • Energy intensity has decreased in the sector from 153.4 in 1970 to 59.6 in 2008. (excluding Agriculture) • If this trend continues projected intensity will be 8 by 2030. • Driven by: • Move away from coal to more efficient gas for electricity generation • Lower use of direct oil & coal for heating • Improvements in building efficiency & regulations also making a contribution Reduction in energy intensity per unit floor area from 1998 to 2007 (excluding agriculture)

  7. Demand Projections Source: Extrapolated from DECC Energy Projections 2022

  8. What factors will lower energy intensity and reduce overall demand by 2030 • New commercial buildings subject to higher standards through continuous regulation - Insulation, lighting, passive heating • Retrofitting of existing commercial properties leading to improvements in efficiency of current facilities • Improvements in technology will decrease energy intensity further. LED lighting, intelligent lighting systems, IT systems, appliances, boilers • Carbon Reduction Commitment Energy Efficiency Scheme • Increases in Energy Prices • Behavioral changes in employees through energy awareness schemes and general concern about climate change effects • An increase in Building Integrated Renewable Energy (BIRE)

  9. Final Demand Projection
