Transport final energy consumption by mode (TERM 001) - Assessment published Jan 2011
-
For the first time since 1990, annual transport energy consumption in the EEA member countries fell, by 0.8%. This reflects the downturn in demand for transport caused by the early stages of the economic recession. Specifically, in 2008 annual declines in road, inland shipping and bunkering (sea) energy consumption outweighed increases in rail and aviation transport consumption. However, the fall does not change the long term picture which shows an increase of 36% between 1990 and 2008. Road transport, responsible for 71 % of transport energy consumption, remains the largest consumer.

Transport final energy consumption by mode (TERM 001) - Assessment published Apr 2009
-
Transport energy consumption in the EEA member countries increased by 33 % between 1990 and 2006 (from 336 to 446 of Mtoe). Road transport, consuming around 71 % of transport energy consumption (319 Mtoe in 2006), is the largest consumer. While the energy consumed by rail has remained fairly constant. Aviation is the fastest growing energy consumer, with an increase of 73 % between 1990 and 2006 (from 31.4 to 54.5 of Mtoe). The continued transport growth in energy consumption threatens compliance with the Kyoto targets.

Transport energy consumption in the EEA member countries increased by 38 % between 1990 and 2007. Road transport, consuming around 72 % of transport energy consumption, is the largest consumer. While the energy consumed by rail has remained fairly constant, aviation is the fastest growing energy consumer, with an increase of 84 % between 1990 and 2007.

Transport final energy consumption by mode (TERM 001) - Assessment published Jan 2013

Between 1990 and 2007, annual transport energy consumption in the EU-27 showed continual growth. However, this trend reversed in 2008 as the effects of the economic recession brought about three years of negative growth. Between 2007 and 2009, total energy demand in the transport sector declined by 4.2%. The most recent published data for 2010 indicates a bottoming out of this recent decline with a drop in energy demand between 2009 and 2010 of just 0.3%. Preliminary estimates for 2011 hint on a return to growth in transport energy demand with a minor increase of 0.1% over 2011.
Outside the EU‑27, over the last decade Switzerland's growth in road transport energy use has been below the EU‑27 average, while its rail energy use has increased compared to an average reduction across the EU‑27. By contrast, Norway and particularly Turkey have seen road transport energy use grow faster than the EU‑27 while Turkey's rail energy use has fallen substantially more than in EU‑27 Member States.
The shipping sector saw the greatest decline in energy consumption during the recession; bunkers dropped by 10 % in 2009 compared to 2007, reflecting weak consumer demand. However, this was also the first transport sector to see a return to growth; over 1% between 2009 and 2010. Combined energy use for aviation, rail and shipping has reduced by 5.2 % between 2007 and 2011. The greatest reduction was for domestic navigation (10.2 %), followed by aviation (5.7 %) and rail (5.3 %). Road transport represents the largest energy consumer, accounting for 72 % of total demand in 2011. It has also been the least affected by the economic downturn, falling by only 3.9 % between 2007 and 2011.
