Organisation\nInternational Energy Agency (IEA)\nUnited Nations Statistics Division (UNSD)\n2. Definition, concepts, and classifications\n2.a. Definition and concepts\nDefinition:\nEnergy intensity is defined as the energy supplied to the economy per unit value of economic output.\nConcepts:\nTotal energy supply, as defined by the International Recommendations for Energy Statistics (IRES), is made up of production plus net imports minus international marine and aviation bunkers plus-stock changes. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the measure of economic output. For international comparison purposes, GDP is measured in constant terms at purchasing power parity.\n2.b. Unit of measure\nEnergy intensity is expressed in megajoules per unit of purchasing power parity GDP in constant 2017 USD figures.\n2.c. Classifications\nThe “International Recommendations for Energy Statistics” (IRES), adopted by the UN Statistical Commission, is the globally recognized standard used to develop the energy statistics underlying the calculation of the indicator.\nThis standard is available at: \u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/methodology/ires\" \u0014unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/methodology/ires\u0015.\n3. Data source type and data collection method\n3.a. Data sources\nTotal energy supply is typically calculated in the making of energy balances. Energy balances are compiled based on data collected for around 150 economies from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and for all countries in the world from the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD). GDP data are taken mainly from the World Bank – World Development Indicator database.\n3.b. Data collection method\nThe IEA collects energy data at the national level according to harmonised international definitions and questionnaires, as described in the UN International Recommendations for Energy Statistics available at : (\u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/methodology/ires\" \u0014unstats.un.org/unsd/energystats/methodology/ires\u0015). UNSD also collects energy statistics from countries according to the same harmonised methodology.\nThe most recent GDP estimates published by the World Bank with reference year of 2017 have been used when calculating this indicator. Additionally, missing years for countries with at least one data point for GDP reported by the World Bank have been estimated using National Accounts – Analysis of Main Aggregates (AMA) growth rates.\n3.c. Data collection calendar\nData are collected on an annual basis.\n3.d. Data release calendar\nThe IEA World Energy Balances are published in February, April and July with progressively broader geographical coverage (publishing full information for two calendar years prior and selected information for one year prior). The UN Energy Balances are made available towards the end of the calendar year with full geographical coverage (publishing information for two calendar years prior).\n3.e.
