Energy efficiency in transformation (ENER 011) - Assessment published Apr 2012
-
In 2009 only 71.6% of the total primary energy consumption in the EU-27 reached the end users. Transformation and distribution (T&D) losses decreased slightly since 1990, from 29.1% in 1990 to 28.4% in 2009. T&D losses were 28.6% in 2008. About 5% represented the energy-sector’s own consumption of energy.

Electricity production by fuel (ENER 027) - Assessment published Aug 2011
-
Fossil
fuels and nuclear energy continue to dominate the fuel mix for electricity
production in EU-27. In 2008, the share in total gross electricity production of
the electricity generated from fossil fuels was 52.9 %, and the share of
nuclear 27.3 %. The electricity generated from renewable sources was 18.0% (in
2008). The total electricity production increased significantly by 31.3 % since
1990, thus offsetting some of the emissions reductions achieved due to fuel
switching from solid fuels to natural gas.

Share of renewable electricity in gross electricity consumption (%) 1990-2008 and 2010 indicative targets
-
The data for World, Africa, Middle East, China, India, Russia and the United States are extracted from the EIA-database from the US DOE. These figures slightly differ from the Eurostat data.
The renewable electricity share in Norway is above 100% in some years because a part of the (renewable) electricity generated domestically is exported to other countries. No 2007-2008 data available for Iceland, 2006 data were used

Average annual growth rates of renewable energy in electricity consumption (EU-27) for 1990-2008 and 2007-2008
-
Average annual growth rates of renewable energy in electricity consumption (EU-27) for 1990-2008 and 2007-2008. The highest growth rates in renewable electricity production in 2007-2008 were observed for photovoltaic (97%/year), wind (13 %/year) and biomass (7 %/year)

Renewable electricity consumption (CSI 031/ENER 030) - Assessment published Aug 2011
-
In 2008, the share of renewable electricity in gross
electricity consumption in the EU-27 was 16.7 % compared to 11.9% in 1990. Renewable
electricity has grown up by 3.3%/year since 1990 (4.1%/year since 1999, 2.6%/year
before). Hydropower accounts for 58% in renewable electricity production,
following by wind 20.9%, biomass and wastes 19% (1% for photovoltaic and
geothermal). Despite good progress, only two countries have already met the indicative
national target and three are very close, meaning that much more needs to be
done to achieve the overall target of 21% by 2010.
